A course of 6 weekly sessions for beginners. If you’ve never touched clay or have no experience since those little creations at school (the one your mum still treasures!) but you’re intrigued by all the creations you see at cute makers markets or avidly watching the Great Pottery Throw Down! Our hand building classes guide you through the foundation skills of slab building, coiling and pinch pots. You will also investigate various techniques for surface decoration and basic glazing. Your work from each class will be fired and a collection of completed pieces will be glaze fired and ready to collect 3-4 weeks after your last class.

These classes will run on a rolling basis, every Tuesday evening from 7-9.30pm. If you feel you’d love to continue your pottery journey but would like to refine your Beginner’s skills before stepping onto the next level we rotate the making projects every 6 weeks. So if you take the following 6 weeks classes after your first we will rotate the projects and you get the opportunity to create a different collection of work.
