Course programme
You will be taken step by step through the techniques of how to make simple bowls, mugs and jugs on the potter's wheel.
You will also learn how to make and attach handles and how to decorate and glaze your pieces.
You will be encouraged to keep a working journal of inspirational material, technical notes and sketches.
You will be taught by a mixture of regular demonstrations and practical individual help and guidance.
Throwing on the wheel is a skill which requires plenty of practice, but once mastered is extremely rewarding and satisfying.
Assessment Methods:
Question and answer as well as observation as you work on pieces with verbal ongoing feedback. This is a leisure course, and is not examined in any way.
