About this workshop:
Welcome to The Quarry Arts Centre’s Intermediate Clay Workshops Programme.
This is your chance to elevate your skills on the potter’s wheel. We invite you to join us for this intermediate-level wheel workshop led by noted Northland ceramicist Julie Cromwell. Participants should have completed a previous beginners workshop here at the Quarry Arts Centre or similar.
If you have beginner level clay experience, but it is your first time looking at attending an intermediate level workshop here at the Quarry Arts Centre, get in touch with us at workshops@quarryarts.org or come in and meet the Quarry Arts team at the Yvonne Rust Gallery Shop, we would love to hear about your clay making experience.
Basic understanding and wheel experience is required. You will need to be able to:
-
Centre Clay
-
Open out
-
Pull the clay up
If you are able to do this but need some help/guidance in moving along to the next stage
this workshop is for you.
Within this workshop we will explore:
-
Pulling and attaching handles
-
Galleries and lids
-
Attaching and working on bats creating items like plates and larger bowls.
Book and join this two-day workshop where you can grow and elevate your ceramic skills to new heights! Don’t miss this chance to explore the joy of ceramics and connect with fellow potter’s wheel enthusiasts!
$170 per person. Excludes clay, firing and glaze.
Clay, firing and glaze are available through the Yvonne Rust Gallery shop – open Monday to Saturday 9.30am to 4.30pm.
Kiln firing is “pay as you go”. Firing can be arranged through the Quarry shop. All work left for drying must be accompanied with the fully completed bisque slip. Work will be submitted for kiln firing when dry and paid.
