Based on skill level, a student will be introduced to the basics of wheel throwing, or will be given tips to improve their skills on centering, lifting, and trimming. At the beginning of each class, Kiara will do demos and then will support students as they dive into their wheel throwing techniques. More experienced students can work along the group or can work independently and seek support when needed. Students will be encouraged to bring in ideas for projects which may be used to feed into their program. This is an 8 week class.
