Ceramics: Wheel Throwing (Tuesday)
Come and learn to make earthenware pottery and vessels. This class is based strongly on finding out your individual needs, as every student comes in with different ideas about what they want to make. The class will encourage students to challenge themselves by stepping out of their comfort zone, by trying new techniques and reminding them that the best way to try something new is to treat it like play; bring your humility to class and you’ll learn a lot more and have much more fun!
Special Notes
This is an in-person class which will take place onsite at Fleisher. Please review our COVID-19 community safety policies for current guidelines.
