Things to keep in mind:
Making pottery on the wheel is a skill that takes years to master, and months to learn the beginning basics. This art form is a long and committed journey that is now a part of our potter’s career and lifestyle. The purpose of this workshop is not to create a masterpiece, or to make a successful pot during your first try. The goal is to dip your toes in the experience and HAVE FUN with clay. We will assist you as much as we can to create a finished piece that you will get to take home, but we are not here to critique your work or your skill level. This is a judgment free zone, with chill vibes only! This is a method of making that can feel very unusual in the beginning, so we hope you’ll embrace the funny feeling of trying something new and laugh with us through all the wobbles and learning moments along the way.
