Join us for an evening on the wheel, learn essential potters' techniques, and have some serious fun along the way.
Our incredibly talented potters will spend the evening teaching you the art of the pottery wheel. Showing you how to create a vessel, in this fun & creative workshop.
In this pottery workshop, you’ll use the wheel to sculpt and create a ceramic piece, focusing on using your hands to create something that is truly one of a kind. We will show you the techniques required to start creating on the wheel and then you can spend the next few hours practicing your new skill and sculpting a keepsake full of personality.
The wheel is fun for all and this workshop is beginner-friendly.
What this workshop includes:
- All equipment and tools required including clay
- Firing and glazing for 2 pieces
- Instructions & guidance from one of Perth’s best Ceramicists
- Grazing board to enjoy during the workshop
- Bottomless loose leaf teas, coffee, and juice
What to bring:
Clay is wonderfully messy! So be sure to wear some old clothes and covered shoes. We'll provide you with an apron on the night.
Important info about this workshop:
Following the workshop, your pieces will be bisque fired, clear glazed, and glaze fired before being returned for you to collect and treasure within 6-8 weeks.
If you create more than 2 x items, you can pay a kiln & glazing fee of $10 per item to turn other creations into usable ceramic vessels.
The pottery wheel can be challenging, sometimes on the first go, you might not create something you love. We will do our best to help coach you along the way. Ceramics can sometimes be unpredictable. Due to this, there are limitations on the size of your items, sadly pieces break during the firing process and we want to ensure you have a beautiful and functional piece. Trust us, we have had to learn from heartbreak! Don't worry though our expert will cover all of this at the start of your workshop.
This workshop is unlike any other and is not to be missed!
House of Hobby works with some of Perth's best creatives to ensure an unforgettable creative experience.
