Get ready to get muddy and creative! This hands-on session is the perfect introduction to the basics of throwing on the pottery wheel.

We'll begin with a short demonstration to show you the key techniques. Then it’s your turn to have a go at centring, shaping, and creating your own pieces. You’ll choose your favourite two to keep.

If time allows, you can decorate your pieces using colourful underglazes. If not, don’t worry — you’ll simply choose the glaze colour you'd like, and we’ll finish them off for you after the first firing.

We’ll also give you a quick behind-the-scenes look at our kiln room, so you can see how your pots go from wet clay to finished ceramics.

Before you arrive:

• Long hair must be tied back

• Keep fingernails short — long nails make it tricky!

• Please bring your own apron or an old towel.

No experience necessary — just bring your enthusiasm!
