  Let’s make some jars. Just jars! And more jars! And lids! Because jars need lids; cap lids, sunken lids, rounded lids. And lids sit on flanges and in galleries. So much to learn. Join us as we tackle the essential techniques to create jars on the wheel. Experience is required for this class. You must have completed a 6 week class at NHAC and be able to throw a cylinder on the wheel.  All materials included.
