Beyond the Basics is a space to deepen your skills, explore new techniques, and develop your style. It’s an intimate, guided course designed for people who want to grow their practice in a way that feels personal, hands-on, and creatively fulfilling.

This course is for those who have had prior experience and are ready to push further. You’ll have the freedom to work on self-directed projects while receiving tailored guidance to refine your forms, experiment with new techniques, and build confidence in your creative process. Less rigid than a formal course, more immersive than a casual class.

What to Expect:

• 5 Weeks of 2 hour classes Wheel Throwing, Trimming and Glazing

• Deeper technical instruction (refining forms, trimming, glazing techniques, surface design).

• A small, intimate setting for personalised guidance.

• Space to develop your own creative style beyond just making “functional” pottery.

• Up to 5 pieces included to be fired and glazed! Additional $10 per piece if you’re wanting to keep more
