5:30 PM - 8:00 PM    Learning to Make Pottery on the Wheel with Amy Kaiser - Learning To Make Pottery On The Wheel For Adults - Session II - Spring 2026 - Amy Kaiser
Wheel for AdultsYou know that you have longed to try your hand at making pottery on the wheel (what potters call “throwing"). This class, intended for the ABSOLUTE BEGINNER, will demystify what looks like magic by teaching you the basics of the fascinating process of turning wet clay into functional pieces for your home. By focusing on learning time-tested techniques and strategies you will learn to center the clay, pull cylinders and throw bowls. As you examine the throwing process in its many stages you will learn to critique your own efforts so that you can make corrections and improvements that will lead to success. Class instruction includes glazing techniques, and your creations will be fired in our kilns. Clay, glazes, and kiln firings are included in the materials fee, and basic tools and water buckets are available in the studio for class use. During the duration of the class you will be able to practice in the studio to help you develop the skills taught in class, moving you toward proficiency. $190 per person ($150 course fee, $40 materials)Wheel for YouthMake your world turn ‘round and ‘round as you learn the basics of making pottery on a wheel. We will work on the basics of throwing (what potters call working on the potter’s wheel) beginning with centering the clay. From there we will pull cylinders and learn to make bowls. Throughout the classes you will make discoveries about the fascinating process of turning wet clay into useful, functional pieces. While it may look like magic, there are specific techniques for working on the wheel that you will learn and practice to successfully create your functional clay pieces. We will glaze our fired pieces on the last day of class. Finished work will be ready to pick up within two weeks of the end of class. Materials fee covers clay, firings, and glazes. Please register only if you plan to attend all scheduled classes, as make-up classes cannot be arranged. $150 per person ($120 course fee, $30 materials)ContactAmy Kaiser(334) 821-0916amyekaiser@gmail.com
