Description
In this introductory course you will learn the fundamental skills of wheel throwing at the Adelaide College of the Arts with one of our experienced lecturers, Jo Crawford or Phil Hart.
You will learn how to centre clay on the wheel, throw cylinder and bowl forms and turning. A combination of frequent demonstrations, practical tips and personal tuition means that even those who have never touched clay before will soon be making surprisingly beautiful pots, making this course ideal for beginners.
You will also be introduced to a range of decorative techniques. At the completion of the course you will have your own glazed pots and bowls to take home to use.
The cost of the course includes clay, use of wheel and tools, firing and materials for decorating and glazing.
Please wear closed-toe footwear (no thongs or sandals) and casual loose clothing. What to bring: sketchbook, notebook, pens and pencils, small hand towel and an apron.
