Have you wanted to try the pottery wheel, but can't give up the time for a 6-week class?
Looking for a creative, fun activity to celebrate a birthday, bond with employees, have a family get-together, or some other special activity like a bachelorette party?
Here's the perfect way to "get your hands dirty" with pottery. In this 3-hour session, Cray Charlebois will show you how to center clay on the wheel and form it into basic pots. You may or may not not make the best looking pieces on your first try, but you will have some creative fun!
After the clay dries (several days) we will put the pieces in a kiln and bisque fire them. We will then glaze them (based on your glaze choices) and fire them again. Then they are ready to be picked up during Main Exhibit Gallery’s regular business hours. The process takes about 2 weeks.
Choose a date and time from the schedule below to learn the basics of throwing on the potter’s wheel in a small group setting ensuring a high level of individual attention. No experience necessary!
