THE WORKS (max 3 participants)

This is a 4 weeks workshop with a maximum of three participants where you will learn the basics of ceramics such as wedging, centering, opening, and pulling up the walls.

We will explore working with simple forms such as cylinders and bowls. You will learn how to trim your pieces to give them the finishing touches and finally you will be glazing your work. Ideally you will be bringing home between 2-5 pieces. Each session lasts approximatively 2h30.

• Week one: Learning how to wedge, getting to know the wheel, centering and throwing. On this first day we will focus on cylinders.
  

• Week two: After a quick demonstration and refresh of the basic technics I will guide you through how to make a bowl, you can then choose to work on cylinders or bowls.

• Week three: We will trim and give the finishing touches to all your work you made in the past two weeks.
  

• Week four: First I will show you different ways of glazing, then you will glaze your bisque work using technics such as dipping, pouring and layering.
  This last session is subject to changes in case your work is not ready to be glazed and it can be rescheduled.
  

Your work will then be fired at 1220 °C and can be collected after about 2 weeks.

I will provide an apron for you but please wear clothes you do not mind getting dirty.

All tools, material and firing costs are included. Price is per person.

I won’t be able to refund the fee if cancellations are made less than 7 days prior to the class.
