A focused, hands-on pottery experience perfect for beginners who want to really get stuck into clay in a single, relaxed workshop.
Over 2.5 hours, you’ll be guided through simple handbuilding techniques and have the chance to try the potter’s wheel, experimenting freely in a friendly studio environment. Price includes clay, use of equipment and tools, and the required two kiln firings to fully finish your pieces. You’ll have the opportunity to choose a glaze on the day and I will finish your pieces for you, ready to be collected in 8-12 weeks.
Alternatively you are welcome to book in sooner into a follow up workshop where you will learn further techniques such as trimming, painting with underglazes and engobes, sgrafitto and other surface decorations, as well as glazing.
Once you are familiar with the studio and processes you may also book into open studio sessions where you can pay by the hour to practice everything you have learned or finish up pieces from previous classes.
Please bring your own apron if you have one. Please note pottery takes time! Pieces need a week or longer to dry completely before being bisque fired and then again before being glaze fired. The whole process takes several weeks. Please get in touch if you need your pieces sooner and we will do our best to accommodate you.
*We’ll run the class with a minimum of 3 people.
