Our craft classes are taught by talented local instructors and held in their inspiring studio spaces around the city.

Then, it's aprons on and sleeves up as you have the opportunity to practice before creating your own piece of pottery! The best part is that you don't have to break the bank to join in with the messy, creative fun – our workshops start from just £29 for a hand building sculpture class, with more advanced courses coming in at between £50 and £80. Whatever your skill level, there's something for you – so get ready to sink those hands into some lovely cool clay today!

Whether you prefer something soothing and relaxing to enjoy solo or something adventurous with a group of friends, family, or colleagues, there's something for everyone. From making mugs, vases or festive baubles, to painting plates, creating a sculpture or a pot for your pens, the possibilities are endless – the only limit is your imagination!
Our classes cater to all occasions, from private classes for special occasions with loved ones to public classes for meeting new people from the city. Depending on the type of pottery you make, you may be able to take your piece home on the day or pick it up later or have it sent to your home once it's set or fired.
