Limited edition : Black cups workshop (September)
4-6 participants • 1 day • 6 hours • Beginner and intermediate level • 180€/person
In this class, I will teach you all the steps to make a set of cups with black stoneware clay using a variety of techniques from wheel to handbuilding. During this intensive workshop, you will make a set of 2 to 6 wheelthrown cups.
You will learn the different techniques of wheel throwing and handbuilding with black clay. I will guide you through the different steps to make handmade pottery pieces and it will be glazed for you after the class to make it food safe and waterproof.
Programm of the workshop:
-
10h-13h : Introduction to wheel throwing, wedging, centering and throwing of 2 to 6 cups
13h-14h : Lunch break - 14h-17h00: Trimming of the cups and handbuilding (handles, textures, finishing)
After your class, your ceramics will be ready to pick up at the studio after 6 weeks. (check our opening pickup times here)
Who is the class suitable for? This workshop is perfect for beginners who want to try wheel throwing for the first time. If you are a more advanced potter, this class is also suitable to help you perfect your technique and refresh what you've already start learning. It's also great for creative minds looking for a hands-on artistic experience.
Go further into the process: Learn about all the steps from start to finish (throwing, trimming and glazing) by booking a 4-sessions pottery class of 10 hours over one month. 🏺🎨

Thank you for your understanding.
