5:30 PM - 8:00 PM	Intermediate Wheel Techniques with John Hawkins - Intermediate Wheel Techniques with John Hawkins - Fall 2026 - John Hawkins This intermediate wheel throwing class will focus on techniques to help you advance in your throwing abilities. We will focus on specific techniques from centering larger amounts of clay, throwing taller, collaring, adding lids, and joining multiple thrown sections. We will combine all of these techniques, and others, to produce multiple final pieces. Before signing up, students need to be comfortable in centering 3 pounds of clay. The class will meet over 7 weeks with a new topic each week. Each week will build on previous skills, so attendance is important. The weekly skills are as follows: Week 1 - centering 5 pounds/ claw pull/ wall compression (Vases); Week 2 - gallery shelves/ lids (jars); Week 3 - joins (tall vases or jars); Week 4- Collaring (Bottles /jugs); Week 5 - Combine all previous techniques (Table lamp); Week 6 - centered puck altering (cake plates/doughnut bird feeders); and Week 7 - finishing up your projects. Pieces will put in for bisque as they become dry during the course. We will not have a dedicated glazing week. If you are an Independent Studio member, you can glaze at your own pace. If you are not an IS member, please let me know and we can discuss and accommodate your glazing needs. $100.00 course + $60 materials feeContactJohn Hawkins256-503-9731john.hawkins.au@gmail.com

5:30 PM - 8:00 PM	Open Yourself Up to Making Closed Forms - Open Yourself Up to Making Closed Forms - Fall 2026 - Amy Kaiser Throwing a closed form on the wheel means sealing off the pot so that you create a hollow vessel. This form is then altered to create any number of useful items.

This is not a beginner’s class and requires the intermediate skills of a confident potter. Class instruction includes glaze techniques and instruction in other surface design techniques. 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. $120/course + $35/Materials feeContactAmy Kaiser(334) 524-9586amyekaiser@gmail.com
