The pottery wheel demonstration was interesting and taught me a lot.
I had never participated in a pottery workshop before.
The instructor Jesse Charney-Golden is excellent!  He is incredibly patient, and 

Clearly describes how the pottery wheel works.

attended the introductory session, which featured a wheel throw exercise that was fantastic.  It is without a doubt something I would advise, and I'm considering taking the entire wheel throw course.
