Introduction to Wheel-Throwing Wednesday 6:00 pm–8:30 pm / 8 sessions Starting June 25
Rock Clay welcomes you to an Introduction to Wheel-Throwing class on Wednesday evenings with Danielle Robertson.
Danielle will teach you to turn a simple ball of clay into a functional or sculptural object- both on the potters’ wheel and by hand. Glazing/surface design will also be covered during this session.
This class is great for beginners, experienced potters, and all those in between!

Beyond teaching, Danielle actively creates and exhibits her artwork, contributing to several art exhibitions over the years. Her dedication to both artmaking and education underscores her commitment to fostering creativity and sharing her passion for the arts.
