This pottery course is designed for complete beginners and for people with some experience who want to build their skills. Over the weekend you will learn to handle clay on the wheel and work through each stage of the throwing process until you feel at ease. You can experiment with narrow, wide, tall and low forms, so you decide the direction of your work. Each participant gets their own wheel for the whole course.
Your instructor, Szabina Lócki, came to craft through a ten-month apprenticeship at a carpentry workshop in Hawaii. After training as a furniture maker, she turned her focus to clay, with throwing as her main interest. She also works with casting and hand-building, and she has been teaching throwing since 2021.
