Discover Pottery Throwing is a fun, intensive throwing workshop that will concentrate on improving your throwing technique on the potter's wheel. Suitable for all abilities, whether you've never tried it before or want to hone your existing pottery skills.

What will the workshop cover and how will it be taught?
With just four students per session, the workshop tutor, Chris, will give individual, tailored help and instruction. This is designed to generally improve throwing technique and focus on areas chosen by each student.

Centring clay, improving cylinder height, bowl technique, throwing plates, making galleries and lids, and throwing bellied forms are all possible subjects of focus of Discover Pottery Throwing.

The emphasis is on practice rather than finishing work, but students will be able to choose one piece to be fired and glazed after the workshop which can be collected at a later date, usually 4-6 weeks after the session.

If you have always wanted to throw larger and lighter pots, or just master the all-important centring of clay on the wheel, Chris is ready to share the approaches and techniques which work.
