This is a hands on pottery experience tailored for families or small groups who want to learn the fundamentals of wheel throwing in their own home—and then have time to practice!

This package is perfect for Families, homeschooler or anyone keen to spend some time on the wheel and learn at their own pace.

What’s Included:

Private in-home lesson covering:

• Clay preparation – how to weigh, wedge and prepare your clay. We will need a sturdy table to use
• Centering & throwing basics – hands-on guidance to get started.
• Shaping & finishing – learn techniques to form your first pieces.
• Learning how to look after the wheel, from setup to cleaning

1 x Nidec Shimpo Whisper-T Pottery Wheel & potter’s stool.

Beginner-friendly clay

Essential Gear: Cleaning buckets, floor-protecting lino (if needed) & extension cable (one wheel required 5amps)

Delivery:
We will bring the wheel and all the gear with us to the private lesson, and then leave it at your place for everyone to use and practice on. At the end of the rental period we will come back and pick everything up

Firing Your Pieces:
You’ll need to arrange your own firing. Some great options around Auckland include Ōrewa Estuary Arts, Clay Studio, and Kilnit.

Lifting of the pottery wheel & setup: We need someone at your end to help us carry the wheel/s (they weigh 45kg and need to be carried by 2 people). If this isn’t possible, let us know an additional resource in our quote. Easy site access is required—no stairs or tight corners
