CraftED: Advanced Throwing with Toluwalope Toludare

June 14, 2023 at6:00 pm - June 16, 2023 at9:00 pm

$275

Workshop Description:

This workshop is intended to build on participants existing wheel-throwing skills through a dedicated time of demonstration and guidance. Participants will be tasked to scale up during the course of this workshop by setting up a desired target with the instructor in order to build confidence on the wheel going forward.

Techniques that will be covered during this workshop include:

  • Centering a larger amount of clay
  • Scaling up by coiling and throwing
  • Scaling up through 2 sectional throwing
  • Using clay more effectively by throwing thinner

Participants will pick up their pieces made during this workshop from The Edge Gallery once they are bisque-fired.

Experience throwing on the wheel is required for this workshop.
