ceramics class

Learning to throw

A ceramics class is a course where students learn to work with clay—shaping it on a wheel, hand-building, glazing, and firing pieces in a kiln.

The term typically refers to recreational or educational settings rather than professional training: I signed up for a ceramics class at the community center.

It's become a popular hobby activity, often mentioned alongside painting or pottery as a creative outlet.
