Wheel Class

The only Pottery Wheel Class in Friuli Venezia-Giulia

The pottery wheel is a complex art that requires discipline and concentration to master. This six-session course covers every stage of creating a ceramic piece on the wheel, from throwing to attaching handles. By the end of the course, students will have acquired the knowledge and skills needed to work independently.

All pieces created during the course will be fired in the kiln and ready for collection after approximately three weeks.

• Lessons 2–4: Trimming and refining, with a focus on developing the walls of each piece
• Lesson 5: Decorating with underglaze colours
