Get a private introduction to ceramics with this private pottery taster session, specifically designed for beginners. This activity is a perfect first step if you're curious about working with clay.
With dedicated guidance, you will learn foundational ceramic techniques. You can choose your focus for the session: either learn how to use the pottery wheel to throw a basic pot, or try hand-building methods to create a small cup using coiling, or perhaps experiment with a simple sculptural shape.
The cost covers all the clay and tools you'll use during this introductory activity, as well as the subsequent firing of the piece you create.
This taster session offers a supportive and personalised way to try your hand at pottery, learn fundamental methods, and make a small keepsake to remember your first experience with clay.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 4 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
