Kids Intro to Throwing with Jamin Eldredge

Your child will get a step-by-step demonstration of how to throw on the pottery wheel! This small group setting will allow for independent wheel throwing and lots of one-on-one teaching time.  Everyone will have the opportunity to explore Jamin’s ten steps to throwing a pot.  Participants will also learn about trimming, the firing process of clay, some basic vocabulary, and the proper storage. Each child will create a set of three functional bowls and one larger piece that are microwave and dishwasher safe.  Participants will also learn about trimming, the firing process of clay, basic vocabulary, and proper storage. Pieces will be available for pick up after final firing. All materials and firing fees included. Kids ages 8-12 years old. This class meets in the Pottery Studio on the lower level of the Education Wing.
