Pottery on the Wheel: Level 1 (Mon. Nov. 2025)

Perfect for beginner to intermediates, participants will learn the foundations of throwing, trimming, and glazing their own pottery. This workshop will be held in our brand new ceramics studio which features triple the square footage, state of the art tools and equipment, and 6 wheels to provide ample time to hone your throwing skills!

Participants have the option of purchasing a 25-pound sleeve of clay ($35) from the arts centre in advance, at the time of the workshop with the option to buy more if desired, or bring their own. If bringing your own clay, please contact SJAC before the workshop to confirm that it is safe for our kiln.
