Introduction to turning workshop at Saint Christoly de Blaye (33

Activity description :

1. 2 hours30 minutes
2. Up to 3 people

Immerse yourself in a first throwing experience as soothing as it is captivating. Josefa welcomes you around the potter's wheel to discover the hypnotic gesture that transforms a simple block of clay into an elegant piece. A suspended moment to learn, feel and let yourself be guided by the material.

Workshop schedule (2h30) :

• Discover the wheel and get to grips with the clay: feel the material, learn to center it and understand the first essential gestures.
• Josefa guides you step by step to create a unique piece (bowl, cup, small vase...), adapted to your level and inspiration.
• Meticulous finishing of your creation, without the addition of colored slips, to preserve the purity of the shapes and the clay.
• Cleaning and tidying up included in the 2h30, for a complete and serene session.
• Josefa then takes care of the firing and transparent glazing, and your piece will be ready for collection a few weeks later.

An accessible and inspiring immersion, perfect for discovering the magic of throwing and creating your very first turned piece.
