Clay & Succulents: Hand Built Pottery Workshop

Hand-build a functional or decorative piece with clay.
Discover the art of hand-building pottery in this fun, beginner-friendly workshop at South Street Gardens. Led by teaching artist and Founder of Express Yourself Studios, Simone Anthony-Brown, you'll learn simple hand-building techniques to create your own handcrafted clay succulent planter—no pottery wheel or previous experience required.
Using premium air-dry clay, you'll shape, assemble, and personalize your planter with beautiful botanical textures inspired by nature, creating a one-of-a-kind piece that's both functional and decorative.
Each registration includes a live succulent provided by South Street Gardens, perfectly paired with your handmade planter, along with instructions for drying, painting, and sealing your finished piece at home.
Whether you're planning a creative afternoon with friends, looking for a unique date activity, or simply want to try something new, this workshop offers a relaxing opportunity to explore creativity while surrounded by the beauty of South Street Gardens.
You'll leave with a handcrafted succulent planter, a live succulent, and the confidence to continue exploring hand-building pottery on your own.
Adults and children 15+ are welcome with a registered adult.
