Introducing Creative Flow - Handbuilding and Decoration
What is ‘Creative Flow’?
This program has been specifically designed to put you in front of some of the most creative local ceramic artists. Teachers who are dedicated to sharing all they know about pottery!
This semester loosely follows a structure designed to immerse you in some of the most satisfying and creative methods of decoration and creating ceramics.
With weekly demonstrations, a three-hour weekly session, and an additional two-hour unguided practice slot during open studio times, your instructor will guide you in many exciting aspects of decoration and creating in clay. They will help you refine your skills while honing your own artistic style and pottery pathway.
While this program features special project focuses, you can opt to either participate in the class or pursue your ongoing initiatives with the knowledge of your teacher. If you have a specific project idea, don't hesitate to discuss it with us. This offering is suited for beginners and intermediate students.
This program is designed for potters without access to a personal studio who want to immerse themselves amongst like-minded creatives. And let’s face it, even if you have a home studio, it can sometimes be a lonely old gig.

We teach every aspect of pottery from introductory workshops through to masterclasses.
At Firebird Studios we are so proud of the quality of work and the quality of potter that we have created. Our combined wealth of experience in the team is such an inspiration to many in our community. The teachers are all so pleased to pass on their knowledge to the students coming through our doors... They willingly give of themselves from their experience - from various artistic backgrounds - and add greatly to our offerings.
We are motivated by encouraging our students to explore their creativity and to bring out their own style. Creativity is the core of our teaching, with technical expertise incorporated to achieve a professional standard!
