Wheel Throwing Workshop for Beginners — 6 Weeks - Wednesday 10.7, 7PM
4 weeks, meets Wednesdays at 7PM, starting October 7th, 2026
Join us at El Studio for a hands-on introduction to the art of wheel throwing. It's a cozy, small-group series designed for true beginners (and anyone craving a creative reset).
This 4-week Wednesday series, beginning October 7th, covers the essential foundations of wheel throwing ceramics. You'll learn how to center clay on the wheel, pull walls, trim your pieces, add simple details, and glaze your finished work. This course is based on everything we taught ourselves when we first fell in love with pottery: practical, approachable, and focused on learning by doing.
It's not about perfection or productivity. It's about showing up, getting your hands muddy, and discovering a practice that helps you slow down and stay present.
You'll leave with a solid foundation to keep practicing, plus a few handmade pieces to show for it.

The Aftermath
Please be patient, pottery takes time!
It takes about 6 weeks to prepare your pieces, so please wait until then before reaching out. We're a small team processing pieces as fast as ceramics allows, and it's hard for us to keep up with messages. Thank you for your patience!
Once your pieces are ready, our team will email you with pick-up information. Please sign up with an email you actively check.
Cancellations
We understand that things can come up at the last minute. That's why we'll give you a full refund if you cancel at least 48 hours before the workshop starts. To cancel, please email us at ocislyceramics@gmail.com.
Cancellations after that point won't be refunded. Since we only offer workshops occasionally, we'll try to move you into a future one or offer other studio activities instead.
If you miss a class, we'll try to schedule solo studio time so you can make it up, but we can't promise it. If you can't pick up your pieces on the last day, we'll hold them at the studio for 1 month.
