I'm looking for three students willing to embark on a 5-day intensive focused on building pottery wheel-throwing skills. Dates: Monday to Friday, September 14-18, 2026 Time: 9:30 am - 11:30 am Weekly focuses: Sep 14: Introduction to throwing Sep 15: Remembering the basics & creating height (possibly trim day 1 pots) Sep 16: Wall thickness (possibly trim day 2 pots) Sep 17: How to use rib tools (possibly trim day 3 pots) Sep 18: Potter's choice Learning how to trim will be woven in throughout the week. Included: One piece per lesson (1-2 lb)** All materials and tools Bisque and glaze kiln firings One seasonal glaze per piece *Wheels are in a small nook area inside Kate's home. Noting this in case of space sensitivities. ** Everyone works at different speeds. For example, a more experienced potter joining this series may produce more pots during the lesson. Each additional piece costs $10+ taxes. Work will be glazed by ZEAL and available 6 to 8 weeks after the series ends. If participants wish to learn how to glaze, an additional session can be added for a fee. Pickup can be tracked here: zealcreativestudio.com/pages/my-pottery-status.
