"I've been exploring pottery for around 38 years. I have a passion for the medium and love to get others addicted to clay with me. My main interest is pottery on the wheel with a focus on decoration to my thrown pieces. I have volunteered at Chemeketa Community College for many of those years and love to help tutoring new wheel students." - Troy Munsell, WAC Instructor and Potter Troy's Beginning Wheel Class is starting soon! Registration is open, sign up before classes start on 10/12! This introductory wheel-throwing course focuses on the skills needed to center, trim, and throw the basic forms of cups, mugs, bowls and plates. # #SalemOregon #CeramicsCommunity #PotteryStudio #willametteartcenter #ceramics
