Group Pottery Workshop - Mug Making

Do something different with your group at this fun, hands-on pottery workshop.



3 hours Class size 4 to 35 guests       £60 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

In this fun and relaxing mug-making workshop with Hot Fox Pottery in Brighton, everyone makes their own mug and finishes it in a glaze they've chosen. It's a really enjoyable way to spend a mindful few hours, and people are always surprised and delighted by what they manage to make!
It's suitable for beginners and for people with more experience. Even if you haven't touched clay since school, you'll go home with something you're genuinely pleased with.
You'll use the soft slab technique, rolling out the clay and shaping it around a former to build your mug. From there it's yours to make your own: carve your own designs into it, decorate it with underglaze paints, or pick from our range of lovely house glazes. We provide all the clay, tools and materials, so you just need to turn up ready to enjoy yourself.
We use high-quality stoneware clay, so your finished mug is durable and dishwasher safe, and something you'll happily use every day.
It's a wonderful Brighton activity for team-building, birthdays, hen dos or a workplace wellness day, giving everyone a chance to step away from their screens and get stuck into a calming, absorbing craft together.
After the workshop, we take the mugs away to be fired and glazed for you. You can collect them from the studio a few weeks later, or we can post them out for the cost of p&p.

Hot Fox Pottery is run by Alice and Tom Fox from our studio in Brighton.
We love introducing people to pottery, and our workshops are creative, relaxing and fun. There is so much you can do with clay, and everyone at our pottery classes comes away feeling proud of the lovely things they have made.
Pottery is a wonderfully tactile craft, and people who come to our sessions often describe the experience as therapeutic, surprising themselves with what they can do, even as a total beginner.
We have lots of experience of running workshops for large groups, parties and team-bonding, and can also bring our mobile studio to you!
We use high-end stoneware materials and beautiful glazes, and the pots you make will be things you can use for years to come.
