Introduction to Hand-building with Clay <br>Saturday 22nd of November

£90.00

Suitable for all abilities, this creative workshop will introduce you to the fundamentals of hand-building with clay. You’ll make three unique pottery pieces. Starting with a pinch pot, you’ll then shape a small bowl and a vase or candleholder, using traditional hand-building techniques.

All materials are provided, including light stoneware clay, sculpting tools, and wooden boards. You’ll also be able to choose your glaze finish on the day.

Once finished, your pieces will be dried and fired twice (first bisque, then glaze) and will be ready to collect around three weeks after the workshop.

You’ll also have the option to add a touch of luxury, a 24 carat gold lustre finish can be applied to the rim of your pots.

✨ You can book this in advance when reserving your spot (at £12 per piece), or if you’re unsure, you’ll have the chance to decide on the day.
