Are you looking for something fun to do for your Hen's Party, Birthday Celebrations, EOY fun or work team bonding? Look no further! Pottery with Deep Blue Ceramics has a #clayplay session for you. Clay play is a wonderful way to get your group out of their heads and enjoy some time together creating with their hands.
Here at Deep Blue Ceramics one of our great passions is involving people in the creation of their own unique and special ceramics. Clay is a wonderful medium to work with, a meditative process in refinement, which takes a natural resource and creates a functional and beautiful product that can last a lifetime.
Learn how to hand build or wheel throw with clay in this private pottery class suited to you and your group's needs! This is a casual class, so we welcome groups to bring along nibbles/drinks to enjoy.
Your group is very welcome at my studio in Weston, ACT or I can come to your workplace, home or another venue. Wheel throwing classes are limited to 10 people and only conducted at our studio.
At the end of your two-hour class, your creations will stay at the studio to be dried, glazed and fired. Local pick up and/or postage to individuals or a central point of contact will be confirmed as part of your booking.
Please allow approximately four weeks for the firings to be completed.
What you'll get
  • An apron to wear throughout.
  • All the materials, glazes and tools needed to create several clay items.

  • 5/5 from Brooke Shipard, attended Jul 2026: Such an amazing afternoon for my baby shower!!! Taylor was the best help!!!! So many laughs, so much knowledge shared and honestly just so much FUN!
  • 5/5 from Ashley Hayek, attended Jun 2026: I booked a private wheel throwing session for my 9th wedding anniversary with my wife. We had an amazing time, learnt lots of ways of working with clay and really got bitten by the bug! I would highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Kessia Miller, attended May 2026: We LOVED this class. The studio was so lovely and cosy but a great size for a group of people. The instructor was so lovely - and taught at a good pace - not too slow but not too fast. The studio is also net 0 (working on solar etc) ans thats amazing for two kilns running! We havent got out pieces back yet, but whether they work out of not, the process of working with your hands for 2 hours un-rushed was an awesome process. 10/10 would recommend and do again!
  • 5/5 from Catherine Corboy, attended Apr 2026: We had a private session for 4, with participant ages between 12 and 89. Mostly absolute beginners to any kind of clay work. Our teacher Taylor put us at ease and was very patient as we got a grasp on the basic techniques. Such an enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!
  • 5/5 from James Manley, attended Jan 2026: This was a fantastic class - I gifted this to my wife as a Christmas present and our class was just lovely. Tayla was a kind and welcoming teacher. We enjoyed both the process and the items we made!
  • 5/5 from Annie Priestly, attended Dec 2025: We loved it! Amy was so lovely and so accommodating! Everyone loved the class and making something that was completely unique! We highly recommend this class to anyone who would love to try pottery!
  • 5/5 from Emma Cowan, attended Dec 2025: We had a fabulous afternoon for our staff Christmas activity at Deep Blue Ceramics. Our teacher led us through different techniques of how to make mugs, bowls and pots, with varying additions and decorations, all with a lot of laughter and fun. We all had an excellent time, and walked away talking about how we'd like to go back and attend another class. I couldn't recommend Deep Blue Ceramics enough, from the helpful and straightforward booking process, to the quality of materials and class itself on the day. Thank you!
  • 5/5 from Brad Clark, attended Oct 2025: My wife and I booked a 2-hour private pottery class to celebrate our 9 year (pottery) anniversary. We had a fantastic time learning the basics of wheel throwing with Taylor who instructed us through the basics, then patiently and thoughtfully guided us to create five pieces for firing in the kiln.
  • 5/5 from Laura Boettcher, attended Jul 2025: Absolutely loved the private class i organised for my sisters 40th. Amy gave us lots of options and let us picked what worked for us. Came away with some special pieces.
  • 5/5 from Kate Kitto, attended Mar 2025: My friend organised a pottery class as a surprise activity for my hens celebration. It was such a relaxing and calm experience! All the girls left the class having at least one item made on the wheel. Nurdan was a fantastic teacher and helped us to fix all our wobbly pots! I am definitely considering coming back for the 5 week beginners wheel throwing class.
  • 5/5 from Christy Cullip, attended Mar 2025: Penny was absolutely fantastic and such a great teacher - thanks to her we had an incredible time!
  • 5/5 from Dagmar Browne, attended Feb 2025: Kristen was amazing and everyone had a blast. Thanks for having us!
  • 5/5 from Garreth Paton, attended Dec 2024: It was a unique and fun Christmas party for our team. I highly recommend this fun team building activity.
  • 5/5 from Kate Charlton, attended Dec 2024: Excellent team bonding session for our workplace! We enjoyed getting our hands dirty with the clay and learning the different methods for shaping and creating. Thanks to our teacher Amy who was patient and inspiring and offered a wonderful class.
  • 5/5 from Sarah Morris, attended Nov 2024: My husband and I undertook a private class for our 8th Wedding Anniversary. I've done serveral classes with Deep Blue Ceramics, however it was my husbands first. He was nervous at first, but once he started, he relaxed in and really enjoyed the experience. Nurdan is an exceptional teacher as well. She explained everything in a way that had my husband throwing a vessel on his second try. I'll never not recommend Deep Blue Ceramics to anyone even a little curious about pottery.
  • 5/5 from Sarah Stronge, attended Aug 2024: Amy was a lovely teacher and very engaging! My partner and I had a lot of fun doing her private course and are super excited to see the finished results.
  • 5/5 from Lexie Claridge, attended Feb 2024: Amy has a beautiful space that catered so well to our group. She is an excellent teacher and host for the afternoon and brought the fun vibes. Will definitely be back and would recommend for other groups wanting a fun experience learning new things!
  • 5/5 from Karen Porter, attended Nov 2023: Amy was super friendly and very helpful for us beginners. The venue was very comfortable and a relaxed atmosphere. All the materials were provided and we got to make about 4 items each which she will put in the kiln. It was great value for money. We learned so much about how to make pottery and our items looked really good. Her communication was fantastic.
  • 5/5 from Melanie Auer, attended Oct 2023: Amy provided a good paced learning environment and a very helpful one on one session.
  • 5/5 from Jade, attended Aug 2023: Teacher was lovely and very accommodating! My group is looking forward to seeing what their future courses will look like at their new studio
  • 5/5 from Srikanth Karumuri, attended Dec 2022: Amy went above and beyond on driving to our place and conducting the workshop. We paid for a 3hour workshop but driving setting up and packing up takes time and she was so generous accommodating our request. She was welcoming and supportive so our team members didn’t have any inhibitions asking for advice and taking guidance to crating incredible pieces of art to cherish for the rest of their life.
