Description

Learn how to make pots on the potters' wheel. You WILL be able to master it by the end of Day 2 - guaranteed! - it's like completing a whole year's evening classes in one weekend, with giggles. Suitable for beginners and improvers. Maximum group size set at three, so everyone gets personal attention. Everyone gets their own wheel to use. Use of tools provided and endless clay to use. There are four skills you need to make any pot - any pot at all - throwing a flat-based pot; throwing a curved-base pot; trimming a foot ring on a bowl; pulling a handle. You will learn all of these four skills. The pottery sits in the middle of the wild Dartmoor landscape. A fabulous National Park to visit, with nearby B&Bs and pubs for beer and pies in the evening. A couple of you would like to come together, but the listed dates don't suit? Get in touch and we can tailor a date you can do! Courses run Sept-May at weekends.
