Pottery on the Wheel: Clay, Form, and Concentration at Maria-Seltmann-Haus

At the Maria-Seltmann-Haus in Weiden, those interested can expect a course that combines craftsmanship, aesthetic experience, and quiet contemplation of work. Pottery on the Wheel is aimed at both beginners who want to experience the special tension between movement, material, and form.

The Magic of Spinning Clay

When centering clay on the wheel, one immediately feels how much this process relies on patience, attention, and rhythm. From a soft, malleable material, even bowls, cups, and vessels are created - precise, individual, and with each turn, a small unique piece. It is precisely this combination of concentration and design that makes the course so appealing.

Learning in Individual Instruction

The spinning takes place in individual lessons, each lasting over an hour. The exact times are coordinated with the course leader, Petra Franken. This personal form of instruction opens up space for immediate guidance, correction, and deepened experience. Thus, the course becomes not just a craft entry point but also an intense artistic experience in the realm of ceramics.

A Place with Cultural Influence

The Maria-Seltmann-Haus is known as a meeting point, leisure, and educational institution in Weiden. The place combines open course offerings with cultural education and an atmosphere that invites lingering. The workroom, house structure, and creative environment create ideal conditions for all who want to work with clay and experience the materiality of ceramic art directly.

Dates, Fees, and Registration
