Teen Wheel Throwing

AMOCA's youth classes offer children an opportunity to dive into new artistic skills in our ceramic studio. These classes are great for those children who haven’t had the opportunity to try their hands at clay. For those looking for a true ceramic experience in a professional ceramic studio this is the program for YOU!

Teen Wheel Throwing w/Bianca Ramirez

During this class the teens will have the opportunity to work in a professional ceramic studio using the same ceramic equipment as the pros use. This class will be an introduction to the potter’s wheel. The class will begin with centering the clay and creating basic forms, such as bowls, cups, and vases. We will spend time learning how to trim and finish the pots we make. Students will be able to sculpt their own style into the pots and paint their work with their favorite colorful patterns.

This class meets once a week from 10am-12pm, on Saturdays June 7, 14, 21, and 28, in the AMOCA Ceramics Studio

Class fee includes materials, firings, and a light snack.
