This class is for beginner-through-intermediate skill level, but students are required to have used a pottery wheel beforehand. Our Wheel Experience Class is a great first introduction to the art of working on a wheel. Practice the fundamentals with professional potter and instructor, Elisha Frazier of Elmtree Pottery. This 5-part class will cover building on the basics of wedging, working with clay on a wheel, trimming, and glazing. Students will have the opportunity to leave the class with finished pieces. **Please note: This is a 5-part class over the course of 6 weeks, with no class on week 5 while pieces are dried and bisque fired before glazing on week 6.**
