In this unique clay workshop, you'll learn the basics of wheel throwing and hand-building techniques, creating your own beautiful ceramic homewares in a relaxed and supportive environment.
The workshop runs for 2.5 hours, split into two sessions where you'll get the opportunity to experience both wheel throwing and hand-building methods.
  • We'll divide the group in half, allowing for a more intimate and focused learning experience as you swap activities midway through the session.
  • Working with clay can be both therapeutic and exciting, allowing you to explore your artistic side and connect with the tactile nature of the medium.
  • By the end of the session, you'll not only have newfound skills in pottery-making but also a collection of handmade pieces to proudly display or gift to loved ones.

Recent reviews of Wheel Throwing and Hand Building Pottery Workshop

  • 5/5 from Jackie Reavie, attended May 2026: We booked a small private class for a group of seven and absolutely loved the experience. The smaller group meant we received plenty of individual attention, which made a big difference as none of us had tried pottery before. Karina and her team were incredibly supportive, and their instructions were clear and easy to follow. The studio itself is very welcoming, and being able to bring along some food and drinks made it feel relaxed, social, and really enjoyable. I especially loved that we got to try both wheel throwing and hand-building—it made the experience even more interesting and well-rounded. We were all so impressed with what we managed to create! I would absolutely do this again and highly recommend it to anyone looking to try pottery, whether you’re a complete beginner or just after a fun and creative experience.
  • 5/5 from Camilla Ganko, attended Apr 2026: Great group event, really fun and got to try new things! The teachers are so wonderful, very patient and accommodating. Will be going back asap.
