Our pottery wheel weekend course is the ideal class to become intensively familiar with and to learn the potter's wheel in a small and collaborative atmosphere.
During this weekend workshop, you'll explore the full ceramics process, from shaping raw clay to completing a finished piece. In the first part of the class, you'll concentrate on developing wheel throwing skills. A separate evening glazing session will follow, where you'll learn how to glaze and apply the final touches to your pottery, bringing your creations to life. After about 4 weeks you can pick up your first pottery objects (4 to 8 pieces) and take them home.
You can also extend your practice time in the afternoon with our open studio option, allowing you to continue working independently for a discounted rate of 30 CHF for 3 hours. Additionally, you can use our recycled clay for just 2 CHF per 100g. You can either book your open studio session in advance or decide spontaneously when you're here - whichever suits you best!
