Clay Sculpture and Hand Building

What you'll do

In this fun workshop you will create a ceramic of your adorable pet, or even a pet that you’ve always wanted.

This class is great for beginners and perfect for those who want to get creative using clay. In this enjoyable workshop, you will master a whole range of pottery techniques and the teacher will provide you with useful information such as, hand building, sculpting and casting.

Throughout the workshop your pottery teacher will be there to guide you and offer to help when needed. By the end of the workshop you will have created your own adorable ceramic pet. You will not be able to take it home immediately, as your ceramic object will have to dry, be coated and then fired. We will let you know when your piece is ready and you can drop into the studio and pick it up.

All materials occur at an additional cost and there is an extra firing cost of $8 per kilogram.
