From bowls and vases to quirky figurines, the possibilities are endless as you unleash your creativity and develop your own style.Don't worry if you're new to ceramics; our experienced instructor will guide you every step of the way, making the process fun and accessible for all skill levels. You'll be amazed at how quickly you pick up the techniques and see your ideas come to life in clay.We understand that firing your pieces is an essential part of the process, which is why we cover the cost of firing up to 10 pieces. Additionally, all the clay and glazes you'll need are included, so you can focus on creating without worrying about extra expenses.Working with clay can be a therapeutic and meditative experience, allowing you to disconnect from the stresses of daily life and immerse yourself in the tactile satisfaction of moulding and shaping. You may find yourself losing track of time as you explore different techniques and uncover the unique possibilities of ceramics.By the end of the workshop, you'll not only have a collection of one-of-a-kind ceramics but also a newfound appreciation for the art of hand building.

You will still be making in week 5 and in cooler weather or if you pieces are thicker, they will take longer than a week to dry before we are able to fire them safely. This process is explained in detail in the course. The complimentary class is not on the same night as the course, as we have separate times for this and a booking system for customers.You must be able to attend all classes. If you are unwell, travelling or unable to attend for whatever reason, we do not offer a make-up class. You do have the option of paying for an additional class, which we run on Monday evenings. 7 finished pieces that you make and glaze Read more details
