Next Level - Intermediate Wheelthrowing: Monday Mornings

Black Hound Clay Studio South offers an intermediate wheelthrowing class led by instructor Lauren Rider, designed for students ready to expand their skills beyond the basics. This course focuses on more advanced throwing techniques, allowing participants to create consistent sets of vessels, lidded containers, pedestal bowls, goblets, and other complex forms. In addition, the class includes demonstrations for making plates using a combination of slab and wheel techniques, providing students with a broader understanding of different ceramic methods. The supportive and well-equipped studio environment encourages experimentation, refinement, and personal artistic growth. This class is intended for students who already have a solid foundation in wheelthrowing and are comfortable with the basic steps of creating pottery. Participants will benefit from hands-on instruction, small class sizes, and personalized guidance from professional teaching artists. Flexible installment payment options make it easier to join and participate fully in the course, while the structured curriculum ensures students leave with improved technical skills, confidence, and the ability to produce more complex and refined ceramic pieces.
