Pottery classes in Rotterdam Noord

If you are new to pottery, prefer a quieter learning environment, or would like to practice throwing before committing to a course, then you can book a session with me to have a go and get your hands dirty.

What you make in the session is up to you, but coming with no fixed outcome in mind is a great opportunity to experiment and play.

Want to bring someone? I can take up to 4 people per class.

  • All classes are 2 hours long

  • Tea/coffee is provided

Throwing or Hand building

(max. 4 students)
Prices per person:

1 student 130 euros
2 students 80 euros

Throwing:

  • Personal guidance through using the potters wheel

  • Learn to ‘throw off the hump’ in order to create a series of small forms

  • As I only have two wheels, groups of more than 2 will alternate. Watching each other throw is in fact really instructive. You can also choose to alternate between wheel throwing and hand building, so that you've learned the basics of both techniques

    Hand building

  • Learn the basics of hand building

  • let your hands run wild and create whatever you like. My kiln is small so think cups/bowls/small plates/small vases/soap dishes…

  • Make as much as you like but please note, 600g worth of clay is included in the price. If you make more then you can pay the extra costs at 20 euros per kg.

  • I will trim and glaze your work for you, ready to be picked up within one month. Please note, if there are any more requests from you, I will charge extra for my additional time.
