When you book Clay Sculpture and Hand Building classes on ClassBento, you'll enjoy exclusive perks:
Clay sculpture and hand building is the most ancient form of pottery in the world. Before we had wheel throwing techniques and other modern tools, hand building was the only method we could use to make practical things like bowls and cups. Obviously, our ancestors all over the world went far beyond practical use of clay sculpture and hand building to create intricate and cherished works of art. And with a clay ceramics class, you can add this ancient craft to your ideas of fun things to do in Sydney this weekend.
With plenty of different time slots and locations, you don’t have to keep searching the internet for “pottery classes near me.” Clay sculpture workshops are fun things to do in Sydney at night after work, or they’ll be perfect for your weekend plans. You can find hand building ceramics for beginners and there are even pottery classes for kids. All you have to do is show up to the ceramic studio and enjoy your ceramics class.

Hand building pottery classes are one of those Sydney activities that are enjoyable and accessible for everyone. Whether you’re looking for fun things to do with the kids during the school holidays or you just need a way to unwind at the end of the day, a pottery class is the perfect solution. If you’re looking for romantic things to do in Sydney to break the mid-week boredom sign you and your partner up to a ceramics class.
Your passionate clay sculpture instructor will be there to guide and encourage you, and at the end of the class, you’ll just have to say goodbye for a short while so that your masterpiece can be fired in the kiln. Once it’s ready, you can bring your work home and put it on display!

Taking a pottery class is a wonderful way to let go of your responsibilities and focus on the now. You’ll love the calm atmosphere of a ceramic studio and the chance to build something with your hands. In fact, the materials of a hand building class are so messy that you won’t be tempted to check your phone. Complete surrender and 100 per cent fun.
