This is a 5-day workshop. All classes run 9 – 4 pm each day with lunch included from 12 – 1 pm.
This workshop would explore taking wheel thrown pieces from plain old round , to many other exciting
shapes. Throwing and altering can create oval, square, rectangle, wiggly, and just plain weird shapes.
We will be darting, pushing, pulling and bending and turning upside down to take wheel thrown shapes
and creating new and interesting items such as, boxes, bakers, jugs, butter dishes jars, casseroles and
vases. A fun way to take things out of round. Students should be able to competently throw a 6 Inch/15 centimetre cylinder.
