Pottery Workshop

Greta Lovci-Leishear throws two pots

Pottery is an ancient and tactile art form that has been cherished for centuries. It involves shaping and molding clay by hand, allowing artisans to create both functional and decorative pieces. Working with clay can be a therapeutic experience, helping to reduce stress and promote mental well-being. In this session, Greta demonstrates the intricacies of throwing two distinct pot shapes on the wheel, sharing her expert techniques and tips.
