Any couples qualify, but class limited to only 4 couples. Come as a group with friends, but don’t hold out too long as we expect classes to fill fast. No experience required, though advanced potters will have as much fun showing their partners what they love doing! Aprons suggested but not required. All pieces will be made and decorated with underglaze that evening. The final pieces will be clear glazed and available for pickup after fired in the kiln (instructor will give info for pickup). BYOB – bring your own beverage and snacks if you like – to share only with your partner. Price is for 2 people.

Meets Thursdays. Always thought that it looked like fun to throw on the potter’s wheel? Here’s your chance to just try it, a two-time session giving the wheel a spin. You get a quick introduction to wheel throwing …then you try it. We supply materials and tools, basic instruction and hands-on assistance. At the end you choose two to three pieces to be fired . On the second class we will talk about different glazing and decoration techniques and you will have a chance to glaze your pieces. Your finished pots can be picked up a couple weeks later. This is a great class for the curious or those who just want to check pottery off the bucket list! No experience required. Wear clothes that you don’t mind getting messy and bring an old towel. Materials fee of $5 is due in class. For more information, please contact the intstructor at renata@rmastrotipottery.com.
