Intermediate Wheel Throwing- Lidded and closed forms
This is a 6 week intensive dive into creating lidded pots and closed vessels in various styles! We will be exploring different types of lids such as insert, overhanging, “cap-style,” drop in, and flush, as well as the different types of complementing handles and knobs. Techniques of making these lids will be explained though one-piece and two piece techniques. As there are so many options and varieties of lids to explore, we will adapt the course to focus on the preferences of the group from week-to-week.
Requirement for participation: A minimum of 8-12 weeks of throwing practice is required.
What is included:
10 kg of clay of your choice and all the tools necessary
Includes glazing and firing
One pass of 4 Independent practices is included during the first 4 weeks of the course.

You will receive an email approximately one month after your session, once your ceramic pieces are ready for pickup. Be sure to check your spam or junk folder!
You will then have 2 weeks to come pick up your pieces during our designated pickup hours. Please bring the email with you. If you are unavailable, you may ask someone else to pick up your pieces — they must show your email as proof.
After the 2-week period, any unclaimed pieces will be donated.
Please note that your piece may crack or break during firing — pottery takes practice! This is why this workshop is focused on the experience, not the final result.
