Pottery Foundation: Level 3 concentrates on developing the skills, technical knowledge and confidence needed for dedicated self-practice in a studio environment.

You will learn more about the properties of clay and glaze, how to recycle and the principles of firing work. You will train on the equipment typically found in a pottery studio so that you can use it safely and effectively. You will also move from a fully taught environment to a guided practice environment where the tutor will work with you to advise and guide you as you make your own work.

Foundation Level 3 is aimed at people who want to develop a home practice or want to join the Edinburgh Ceramics Workshop studio. You will supply your own materials for this course but the tutor will introduce you to clay and glaze types and suppliers and to our ECW materials shop.

Foundation Level 3 classes are in 8-week blocks and cost £260.
