Wheel Throwing: Monday Afternoon

Monday, 2pm-4.30pm

Join potter and artist Josey Donald for this dedicated wheel throwing course. Turning pottery on the wheel can be a beautiful and rewarding experience that improves over dedicated time.

This pottery course will teach you all the basics you need to get you started on your journey in making wheel thrown ceramics and give you a hands-on opportunity to practice your technique and learn the fundamentals to throwing clay on the wheel. The course is suitable for complete beginners as well as students who have already done courses and wish to continue learning and developing their skills while making beautiful pots on a potter’s wheel.

What to Bring 
Tools, glaze and firing costs are included in the course costs but clay is purchased through the centre via card payments based on use (approx. £6 per ¼ bag). There will be some reclaimed clay to use for no cost, just ask your tutor about this material.

About the Tutor
Joseph Donald is a Dundee based artist, musician, and maker. With a helping of humour and absurdity he investigates the work/play relationships inherent in creative practices – allowing for great swathes of investment in professionally justified silliness. Through painting, sound and forays into fine joinery, he uses found/waste materials to create objects where play meets function, and being meets belonging.
