4 Week Wheel for Kids
Fridays 430-6
Service Description
*Please note that this class skips May 16th* Designed for grades 3 and up, this four week wheel class with cover the basics of how to create vessels on the wheel. Children will learn about the various stages of clay, the importance of centering on the wheel and how to: - cone up and down (with guided assistance) - pull walls - trim and add foot rings - add simple surface design. Students will also learn how to properly clean and care for their tools, wheel, and station. Those who register for this class should know that throwing on the wheel is not easy and requires continued practice, muscle memory, and persistence. With a maximum of three students, each child will receive direct attention and guidance as needed from the instructor in an effort to help them be successful. Students will be able to keep up to four vessels from their course. After choosing single colors for each vessel, River Ceramics will glaze the pieces and send notice when pieces are ready for pickup (about 4 weeks after the end of class). Should students choose to glaze their own pieces, they can schedule a glazing appointment once pieces have been bisque fired. We ask that all pieces are glazed and picked up by 8 weeks after the end of the class. There are no make ups for a missed class. Please plan accordingly for the four weeks that the class is scheduled. In order to make the most of our time, we will begin class no later than 4:35.
