January 23-24, 2027 | 10:00am - 4:00pm
Join us in the studio for a two-day intensive with New Hampshire ceramic artist Brian O’Hare of Ripple Pottery, a potter with nearly three decades of experience creating high-fired stoneware and porcelain
www.ripplepottery.com @ripplepottery
This workshop is about pushing your wheel work beyond its comfortable limits.
Brian will focus on the techniques and structural thinking behind throwing taller, wider, and larger forms, including throwing off the hump, managing clay at greater scale, and understanding the forces that can cause larger forms to twist, buckle, or lose their shape.
Through demonstrations and hands-on practice, we'll explore how to work with more clay, build height and width with intention, and troubleshoot the challenges that come with increasing scale.
Whether you've been wanting to throw larger vessels, struggling with tall forms, or simply want to understand what your clay is capable of, this weekend is an opportunity to push your skills, experiment, and learn directly from an experienced working potter.
This is a hands-on workshop for intermediate and advanced wheel throwers.
To create a more personal, focused experience with plenty of opportunity for questions, feedback, and one-on-one instruction, this workshop will be capped at just 16 participants.
$250 for Jewell Town Pottery Students and Members
$350 for non-members
