Introduction

For 70 years we have been teaching young students how to throw clay on the wheel. The clay studio is our wheelhouse. In this course, students ages 10-14 create a fun and supportive community of peers while learning how to make objects using the electric wheel. Each session takes place in our historic light filled studio and begins with an instructor led demonstration followed by one on one time to practice making. Our projects are designed to encourage curiosity and facilitate hands on learning and decision making. This is a year round class and students are encouraged to take it over and over to continue to develop their wheel skills. This course also pairs well with Clay 002 or wood 001
