Curious about pottery but not sure where to start? Our introductory workshops are designed for complete beginners — no experience needed. In just one evening, you’ll explore clay in a relaxed, social environment, learn the basics from experienced potters, and create pieces you’ll be proud to show off.
You’ll:
• Try out both wheel throwing and hand-building techniques.
• Experiment with decorating tools, stamps, textures, and glazes.
• Watch a live wheel demonstration and try to create your own small bowl, cup or tealight holder.
We provide everything you need — clay, tools, instruction, and studio support — and we’ll even finish, fire, and glaze your work for you.
Your handmade creations will be ready to pick up about 4–6 weeks after the workshop.
It’s a relaxed, social night out — and you’ll leave with something handmade and one-of-a-kind.
