Join David for Pottery Throwing!

AUTUMN TERM FULLY BOOKED - try Wednesday afternoons or a different evening.

WINTER TERM - Wednesday 5th November until 17th December

WHAT: Learn the exciting art of throwing on the potter's wheel. This course is perfect for beginners and intermediates, where you will learn in a small intimate group to ensure you get the proper guidance and tuition needed.

You will develop the skills to throw your own pots in just a few weeks; learning how to centre the clay, open out the shape, pull up the walls and control the form. Your tutor will show you how to shape your piece, trim and neaten, then decorate with glazes before your creations are fired in the kiln.

You should come away with 3 masterpieces to take home, but please be aware that absolute beginners’ pieces are more likely to break during the bisque fire, so there is a chance that they might not survive!

WHO: David Preston will be your tutor for this course. David is an amazing local ceramicist who has lots of knowledge to share.

WHERE: Globe 2, Holme Mills, West Slaithwaite, HD7 6LS - Globe 2 is located behind Zapato, go through the green gates to the side of Zapato, turn right, and you'll see our signage under the canopy at the left.

WHEN: Wednesdays, 6-8pm

HOW MUCH: £160 for 6 weeks (6 x 2 hour sessions) - includes tuition, materials and refreshments. Please note that shorter/longer terms are prices accordingly.
