A Day on the Wheel: 3 May

About the class

Curious about ceramics but not sure where to start? This hands-on workshop is the perfect introduction to the art of wheel throwing. Designed for complete beginners, you’ll learn the basics of working with clay on the pottery wheel in a relaxed and supportive environment.

With expert guidance from your tutor, you’ll get a feel for the materials, try your hand at shaping forms, and have fun discovering a new skill—no experience needed!

What to bring:

• Notebook & pen
• Apron
• An old towel

Students must wear appropriate clothing, closed-toe shoes and tie up long hair for safety reasons.

Firing & Glazing

Work made in this class will be fired after the session. Due to drying times and kiln scheduling, pieces will be ready for collection at a later date.

To complete your work, we encourage you to book into one of our stand alone glazing sessions. This is a great opportunity to return, choose your glaze colours and finish your pieces, making them ready to use, drink or eat from and enjoy at home.

Building Accessibility

Walyalup Fremantle Arts Centre is a heritage-listed building with access limitations. While there are no lift facilities within the main building, the ceramics studio is wheelchair accessible.

We acknowledge these limitations and are committed to improving accessibility where possible. We continue to explore ways to make our programs more inclusive and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions.
