What you'll do
Get behind the potters wheel and start creating with SMAart Gallery and Studio in San Francisco. Over six weeks, learn pottery basics and improve your skills in a relaxed and fun environment!
Each week, join us for two and a half hours and have our master potters show you basic wheel throwing techniques before moving on to trimming, bowls, plates, mugs, handles, and glazing.
This casual pottery course is great for beginner or intermediate potters. Throughout the course, you will also have unlimited access to our studio by appointment from 10 am-9 pm, where you can continue working on your DIY projects.
You will play with a 12-1/2 pound bag of clay, studio tools, glazes, and firing and will complete the course with your very own beautiful designs to take home!
Please note:
- Please arrive 10 minutes early so we can start on time. Late arrivals disrupt the flow of the demonstration and won't give you the time you will want to create.
