Session 23.10.2024 19:00-21:00

A 3-part pottery workshop in a small group of 3-4 people to try out and learn how to work on the potters wheel or optionally- depending your pottery knowledge- deepen the throwing technique on the potters wheel.

In the first session we start with a short introduction to the material clay and continue with the preparation. After a demonstration of throwing on the potter's wheel, participants are invited to model the clay on the wheel. The basic techniques, tips and tricks are taught.

On the following day, the 2nd session, we continue with refining the shape of the ceramics we created the day before. Therefore we use trimming tools, attach handles and can set a individual markers mark. 
After 7-10 days of drying, the ceramic pieces get their first firing, the bisque firing, to prepare them for the upcoming glaze.

During the 3rd session we glaze all crafted pieces, and focus on the color design of each ceramic. This is followed by a glaze firing at 1240°C.

After the glaze firing the ceramics are ready for their new homes. You can pick them up in the studio, shipping is also possible (+7,50€)

The Workshop fee incl. all materials and bisque + glaze firing and takes place in my studio at Danzig am Platz:

Ostparkstraße 11, 60314 Frankfurt am Main
