Beginning Ceramics: Wheel Throwing

For true beginners curious about ceramics or students with some experience looking to rediscover their skills with clay, this class will take you through the fundamental techniques of working with clay on the wheel. Students will learn to throw from beginner forms (pulling cylinders) and expand to things that interest them! Bowls, cups, mugs, plates, teapots, vases, planters, etc. We will work towards personal goals of the student while improving technique and gaining information regarding throwing itself. No prior experience necessary and all prior experiences welcome!

NOTE: This class is not eligible for fee remission for Ivy Tech employees due to limited capacity. Please see our CLL fee remission guidelines for more information.

OPEN STUDIO HOURS: This class will have open studio hours available to all registered students to work on class projects outside of class time as needed, as well as to pick up any pieces that still need to be fired following the end of class. A finalized schedule will be provided in initial communications prior to the start of class, though please be aware that there will be fewer daytime hours during the week due to youth summer camps in June and July.
