I had the best time at the wheel throwing class. It was a great way to spend a morning. Super interested in signing up for more classes.

Had a great time doing clay and sip.
Got some really really good tips, which was definitely necessary, as I hadn't worked with clay in years.
They're dodgy, but they're mine!
Might just have to come back for a wheel class...

I have wanted to learn pottery for ages, the wheel throwing course was great. It wasn’t easy, but Molly made it fun and was exceptional with her teaching skills. Her patience is a credit to her. Even though I struggled, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
A great space to learn this craft and well worth the effort. Thank you

Mollie is a great teacher, I've done a couple of wheel throwing courses before without much success, however, with Mollie I learnt a lot and at last feel comfortable throwing a pot. The class was enjoyable, with a good camaraderie amongst the classmates.

Booked Clay & Sip for my 29th Birthday and we all had a great time. Everyone loved getting creative and all are excited to get their creation back. Its awesome that everyone has a little momento. Loved the ladies running our class, they were full of tips and lots of fun.
Thankyou Art Department what a great night!

We had Ben for our class and I really appreciated how informative he was. For my mug I went with a little more difficult of a design, Ben made sure to help out so that the design was properly blended to avoid random cracks in my clay. Mum really enjoyed the class as well, especially the pinch pot method. Thanks for teaching us Ben!

Birthday (Brydie’s)
We had a lovely time.
Molly got the required info across breezily & well - for all levels- quickly & in a way that everyone understood. She has a good sense of humour (great for this role) & helped where needed without being intrusive.
Even the play-list was good! Thank you for an enjoyable experience!
