Description Already know how and just need more time to work on it? Been away from the wheel for awhile? Starting from scratch? This class is meant for you. Wheel-Throwing for All Levels is open to a range of skill levels, from those who have never even seen a wheel, to those with more advanced skills. Come learn a lot and have some fun at Make Waynesboro Clay Studio in Waynesboro, VA! Instructor and studio owner Jake Johnson holds an MFA in Ceramics from Penn State and has been working in clay for twenty years. Jake will match the class to the student, so that all students improve from their current skill level. What’s it cost? What’s the fee include? A six-week class session costs $185.00 per student.
