The wheel lessons are a new course that begins in March 2025. The great desire of our students for this branch of ceramics was the reason for the creation of these courses.
Our goal is for students to be able to learn shaping techniques with the help of the wheel, as well as to practice the possibilities of decoration at the same time.
The first cycle of wheeled pottery includes 16 two-hour lessons in which students will be taught, both theoretically and practically, the following:
- basic function of the wheel
- tools and their use
- different pottery clays
- kneading of the clay
- centering
- creation of simple and complex shapes on the wheel
- trimming
- drying
- decoration with fire colours and bandanas
- glazing
The lessons in this cycle are 16 and in case someone cannot attend some of them, there is no possibility of making it up (unless there is a vacancy in another lesson). In case a lesson is postponed, it is made up based on the availability of students and teachers.
