Mobile Ceramics and Sip Workshop

Learn hand building while you sip your own BYO drinks!



2 hours Class size 1 to 15 guests    

  $95 (Afterpay & PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Our mobile ceramics and sip workshops bring the joy of clay straight to you. Perfect for birthdays, hens' nights or a relaxed Friday evening with friends, you’ll settle in with a drink, get your hands dirty and enjoy a creative, social experience in your own space.
You will be guided step-by-step through beginner-friendly hand building techniques, learning how to shape, build and personalise your own functional or decorative ceramic piece. You’ll experiment with forms like pinch pots and slab-built designs, add texture, and finish your piece using underglazes to bring your vision to life.
No experience is needed—just curiosity and a willingness to have fun.
After the workshop, your pieces will be professionally fired and glazed, ready to be collected or delivered within 4–6 weeks. All you need to do is provide the space—we’ll take care of the rest.
Note: Any changes to dates or times can be negotiated—just send an inquiry to chat about your event.

Cinder Ceramics
Cinder Ceramics

female Women-owned

Cinder Ceramics is a small, Newcastle-based ceramics practice founded by Shelby, whose love for clay began back in Year 7 during high school art class. What started as a quiet interest stayed with her for years, always in the background, until she finally booked an eight-week pottery course during her first year at uni studying Occupational Therapy, as a creative outlet.
That short course ended up changing everything. Shelby quickly fell in love with ceramics, the process, the patience it requires, and the way clay allows creativity and function to meet. Since then, her passion for ceramics has continued to grow, becoming an essential part of both her creative and personal life.
Shelby particularly loves bringing people’s ideas to life through custom commissions, working closely with clients to create meaningful, one-of-a-kind pieces. Cinder Ceramics now also offers mobile ceramics and sip workshops, focusing on relaxed, beginner-friendly hand-building sessions that can be enjoyed in your own space. These workshops are designed to be social, creative, and welcoming, no experience required, just a willingness to get your hands dirty.
