For those of you that just want to dip a toe, get a refresher, or try it out—here is your chance! This one-time class is perfect for those who are not ready to dive into a long-form class quite yet, but want to experience throwing on the wheel. You will learn the basics of wheel throwing and you will be able to take home your finished piece a few weeks after class.

After class, we will trim your pieces and glaze them in one of three colors of your choosing. Your pieces will be ready for pickup 6 weeks after the date of your class.

These classes will be taught by Danielle D’Aversa and Prudence Graves.

A little about Danielle:

Danielle first learned ceramics while at Roger Williams University and then honed her craft through mentorships and self exploration in her home studio. As a teacher, she brings the experience of a potter who has shown her work in galleries, sold pots in markets all across New England, and has a true passion for the craft. 

Danielle's teaching style follows the fundamental skills of wheel-throwing while pushing each individual towards achieving their own personal goals. She brings an open mind, friendly demeanor, enthusiasm, and an adaptable teaching style to her classes to meet students where they are. Danielle hopes to inspire creativity and foster community within her classes and believes that the most valuable pottery education comes from community studios much like The Mud Room. 

A little about Prudence:

Prudence (she/her) discovered her passion for clay through handbuilding during high school and has been honing her skills on the wheel since 2019. She found both consistency in her practice and a strong ceramic community through her membership at The Mud Room in 2021. Prudence loves exploring new techniques and experimenting with different ceramic methods. As an instructor, she is dedicated to fostering curiosity and guiding students towards their unique ceramic goals.
