Beginner Pottery Throwing Course | Obby

We will learn centralizing the clay and pulling the wall, making the basic cylinder. We use basic stoneware clay, it's very good for throwing.

The beginner or refreshing course gives you enough time to improve and finish some work, learning pulling handles, mostly the basic things.

The taster session gives you a picture of working with your hand and get messy with clay. You can create some finished work at the end of the course, all fired and glazed too.

If you have an apron, please bring it along.
