Dates: Thursdays, 5/2-6/20

Times: 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Description:

Come join Michael’s 8-week session as we focus on creating your own custom line of tableware. From creating matching sets of dinner, lunch and dessert plates, to learning the traditional technique of throwing smaller forms, cups, and soup/salad bowls “off the hump”. We will also explore the larger tableware forms such as pitchers, platters, and larger serving bowls.  

This course is suitable for: Intermediate and advanced students. Skill expectation is that the student can confidently center and throw an 6’’ tall basic cylinder.

Recommended prerequisite classes: At least one introduction to wheel throwing class (the more experience, the better).

Drop-in Lab hours: 

Students are welcome to come in during our open studio lab hours to work independently on Tuesdays 3 PM-8 PM and Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays 10 AM-4 PM. Please note that occasional workshops and events may be held during lab hours, in which case some wheels may be occupied. Lab hours are subject to change depending on studio needs. The last day for lab hours is Sunday, June 16th. Lab hours will not be available after the class has concluded.

*In the case that a make-up class must be scheduled, the students will be notified and the class may be held on a different day of the week. A refund or credit will not be issued in the case that a student cannot attend the make-up class.
