pottery classes (6-8 weeks)

dex(terity) lab offers a variety of pottery classes and workshops in our mid-town studio. suitable for all levels, our classes cover introductory and advanced techniques in wheel throwing, hand building, decorating, and glazing. classes are limited to 8 students to guarantee each participant has access to all equipment and receives individual attention. 

classes run for 6 or 8 weeks with a new demo each week. 

please see below for outlines for our wheel throwing classes.

wheel throwing ( 8 weeks)

              

week 1 - cylinders
                  
week 2 - bowls                 
week 3 - trimming & handles

week 5 - glazing
week 6 - lids             
week 7 - trimming           
week 8 - glazing            



make up classes are possible only if there is space in another class. if not, a make up class can be done on the last class of another session for glazing only. 

each student will receive a tool kit at the beginning of the class. there is a $15.00 tool deposit which is refundable as long as all tools are returned at the end of the session. 

clay is purchased in 5kg blocks for $20.00/5kg. on average, students use between 1-3 block per 8 week session. 

all glazes and firings are included in the registration fee.

our classes fill up VERY fast and we unfortunately can not reserve spaces without full payment.

please note: 

there are no refunds for classes once purchased.
in the event of a city mandated lockdown due to covid-19, registered students will be deferred to the next available session.
