About
Watch our talented potter ‘throw’ clay on the wheel! They’ll demonstrate how to centre clay, pull, raise and thin the walls, and then drop the middle to create objects of all sizes and shapes. Finally, our artisan will trim the foot neatly and remove the piece from the wheel, ready for firing. Registration is not required for this activity. Participants can watch at any time during the demonstration.
