Designed for beginners, or those who have basic skills on the pottery wheel, this course will take you through the complete process of transforming pottery from clay to finished product.

- How to centre and throw on the potter's wheel
- How to shape the clay and create different forms
- How to trim, refine and add handles to your work
- An understanding of the firing process
- Basic glaze theory, styles of glazing and glaze application
- Studio tips, tricks and specialist knowledge gained over many years of practice
Class sizes are small (3-4 people), so you're guaranteed to receive personalised guidance and plenty of hands-on assistance.
The course includes:
- Full tuition over four sessions
- Step-by-step instruction for beginners
- All tools, materials, and clay provided
- One-on-one feedback and assistance
- Firing and glazing of up to five finished pieces (extra work can be fired at an additional cost of $10 per item)
Our pottery workshops and courses are held at our home studio, located in Porepunkah, VIC.
