Hand building participants will make a specific project (ex: mug, planter, candle holder).  This is slower paced than the wheel and allows for flexibility when forming the shape.  Also a good choice for participants who are younger or lack the upper body strength needed for the wheel.

-Wheel throwing involves making a clay piece on a pottery wheel and requires certain hand and upper body strength.  While no wheel experience is necessary, wheel throwing can be challenging to beginners.  We guarantee that all participants will make a piece, and probably end up with a small bowl or cylinder shaped pot.  Don’t come with an idea in mind if it’s your first time!  It takes lots of practice.  

-Pottery painting accommodates most everyone.

For all three types of events, participants are guided step by step through the entire process under the direction of our exceptional instructor(s).
