Celebrate your child's next birthday with a wonderfully creative pottery party workshop in Kempston. This is the perfect activity for a memorable and fun-filled celebration where every guest gets to learn a new skill and create a unique piece of art.
This two-hour exclusive session is designed to be completely stress-free for parents and fantastically fun for children. The birthday group will learn how to use hand-building techniques to create their very own sculpture. With expert help on hand at all times, their imaginations can run wild as they make a favourite animal, a superhero, or anything else they can think of. Afterwards, they will choose their favourite glazes for the studio team to paint and fire their items.
The party package includes:
  • Printable invites for your guests
  • Two hours of exclusive workshop studio access
  • Expert help and tuition from our team
  • The option to bring your own party food and birthday cake
  • A stress-free clean-up – we’ll do it all for you!
  • A 'drop and go' option for children aged six and over
During the two hour session, children will learn all about hand-building techniques and get to create their own sculpture whether it is their favourite animal, superhero or anything else they can think of. Help on hand from us at all times. They will get to choose their chosen glazes for us to paint their items in at a later date after they have been fired. All pricing includes firing of the finished items, which will be ready to collect approx 6-8 weeks after the session.
Parties are held at our Studio based in Kempston West End (MK43 8RU) however we can also travel to your home or venue.
IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ: Pottery takes approximately 6-8 weeks to fire - these are estimates only and may take longer. You'll be emailed when ready with self-collection details. Items must be collected within 30 days or will be disposed of. Due to the nature of high-temperature firing, perfect results cannot be guaranteed and we don't provide refunds for firing outcomes, though we always try to help resolve issues where possible.
