8 Week Course
Available spots
Service Description
In this 8-week course, students will learn how to throw and trim flower pots, trays, and vases to make vessels for plants. The instructor will guide students through crafting pots for growing different types of specific plants and/or for floral display. Whether you enjoy succulents, cacti, orchids, propagating cuttings, or arranging bouquets, there is something for every budding or seasoned plant enthusiast in this course. Special demonstrations will include: making hanging planters, piercing orchid pots, and throwing more than 5 lbs of clay at a time. Experience in a prior throwing class is recommended. Students should arrive to class knowing how to center clay and pull cylinder and/or bowl shapes, as the instructor will not spend time focusing on the basics of throwing. The cost of this course is $400. Students pay an online deposit of $100 to register and have options for paying the remainder in-person. To Bring: Notebook/Sketchbook and writing utensil. Old clothes or attire you don’t mind getting a little dirty. Tool kits will be available for purchase on the first day of class for $15. If students would prefer to bring in tools for class on their own, the following will be required for this class: a metal rib, wooden rib, needle tool, wire tool, sponge, wooden knife, fettling knife, and trimming tools.
