SUMMARY:Beginning Wheel Throwing Pottery Class with Beth Roy
DESCRIPTION:Always Wanted to Try the Pottery Wheel? Now’s Your Chance!\n\nJoin Beth Roy on Saturday\, Aug 1st from 10:00 to 1:00 for this fun\, hands-on introduction to wheel throwing! In this beginner-friendly workshop\, Beth will guide you through the fundamentals—centering clay on the wheel\, forming a cylinder\, trimming the “skirt\,” and cutting your piece from the wheel. By the end of class\, you’ll have created several small bowls\, dishes\, or similar masterpieces.\n\nImportant Info for First-Timers\n\nThis class is designed especially for beginners or those looking to refine their wheel-throwing technique. We encourage you to come with realistic expectations and a curious\, beginner’s mindset.\n\nNew to Clay?\n\nIf you’ve never touched clay before\, we highly recommend trying one of our hand-building classes first. These offer a great introduction to the feel of clay and how to manipulate it. They’re also perfect for creating beautiful\, larger-scale projects with a high rate of success—even for first-timers!\n\nAbout the Learning Process:\n\nIt’s important to know: no one sits down at the wheel for the first time and magically creates a big\, beautiful bowl. Wheel throwing is a skill that develops over time\, and every class builds on the one before it. Celebrate your progress—it’s a true sign of success!\n\nGet Ready to Get Messy!\n\n 	Wear comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.

SUMMARY:Splash Into Wet Felting: A Two-Part Summer Fiber Art Series! with Stacey Whitlow at ARTworks Vass
DESCRIPTION:You asked for wet felting classes… and we listened! The hot summer months of July and August are the perfect time to gather at ARTworks Vass for a hands-on\, creative wet felting experience. Join us for this special two-part wet felting series designed to introduce you to the relaxing and magical process of transforming soft wool into beautiful sculptural creations. \nThis registration includes BOTH classes in the series\, as well as your own personalized wet felting kit to keep! Your kit will include the essential tools needed for wet felting so you can continue creating projects long after class ends. \nWe’ll begin on Wednesday\, July 1st from 4:00 to 7:00 by creating three beautiful stemmed wet felted flowers while learning the foundational skills of wet felting. This beginner-friendly class is the perfect introduction to layering\, shaping\, and forming wool fibers. During this class\, we’ll also discuss the different types of handles and finishing options available for your August project so your chosen handles can be ready for you at the second session. \nThen\, on Wednesday\, August 5th from 4 PM to 7 PM\, we’ll build on those skills as we create larger wet felted balloon vessels. You will have several options for your final project including creating a felted bag\, flower pot cover\, or decorative vessel. \nWet felting is VERY different from needle felting\, so come prepared to get wet and soapy! We will be working outside for some\, if not all\, of the classes\, so dress comfortably for the weather. \nThese classes must be taken together to ensure proper development the foundational skills needed for the larger August project. \nEach guest should bring two to three thick\, clean towels to use during the felting process. \nClass size is very limited due to the complexity of the projects\, so early registration is strongly encouraged. \nAll-inclusive Price: $222 \nBeginners welcome! \nImportant Information: \n\nBeginners are welcome.\nPlease note: ARTworks Vass is home to friendly gallery/studio cats who may be present during classes and events. 🐾\nChildren age 14 and older may attend class independently.\nRegistration allows for one Guest per class project.\nOnly Registered Guests may attend class.\nRegistrations are non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled.\nClass starts promptly as scheduled.\nDress to mess or bring an apron.\nAt ARTworks Vass\, you’re always welcome to bring your own Nibbles and Sips to class.\nClick here to read the ARTworks Vass Disclosure and Liability Waiver for All Classes and Events\n\nRegister online here or call us at 910-245-4129 to save your space in class. \nClick here to submit your request if you’re interested in hosting a private class for your group of 8 or more.
