BEGINNER SPIN
Monthly One-Off Intro to Wheel Workshops (teens and adults)
Location: CCC’s New 12th Street Annex
215 12th Street, Carbondale, CO
$65/person
The focus of this intro 2.5hr hands-on workshop is to introduce participants with the process of throwing on the wheel. Teens under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
We will cover centering, opening, and pulling clay
pieces on the potter's wheel. Because this is just a 2.5 hour introductory experience, the intention is to focus on process. You won’t go home with any finished pieces, but you will have a great experience learning a new skill, getting dirty, and meeting new people. Careful! You might just leave wanting more…
