The workshop will be held at Pot Head HQ, Unit 8 studios in the heart of St Werburgh's. A hidden gem, home to a vibrant community of creatives.
Join us to have a play with some clay and learn to create your own ceramic plant pot character in a fun, relaxing, creative workshop! Community spirit has never been more important and we love to bring people together to create and connect.
In the 2 hour workshop you will use simple techniques to build your own pot head character using air-drying clay. Take your pot away on the day, with a botanical hairstyle of your choice.
Our workshops are a great way to unwind, relax and get in touch with your creative and silly side. Lots of fun to do together with a friend or partner, to get the gang together, or bring yourself and meet other Pot Heads!
The Pot Head workshops are also completely portable! All that is needed is tables and chairs and we bring everything else, so if you would like to host a session at a venue of your choice this is no problem. Available for all group sizes.

The Pot Heads are handmade ceramic beings, created by community artist Tasha Bee and many others during fun, relaxing workshops that encourage social connection, creativity and a healthy dose of silliness! Based in Bristol, Tasha runs regular workshops and since the Pot Head movement began at the start of 2019, 1000s of Pot Heads have been potted into creation!
The idea was born when she was working at a pottery studio which supports individuals with learning difficulties and autism, where she fell completely in love with the playful, relaxing nature of clay and soon wanted to share it with everyone she knew... She developed a simple way of building pots which could be clearly demonstrated step-by-step (and mastered by everybody!). Then, after playing around with turning the pots into characters by adding features, she was amazed at how different each pot looked as every person brought their own imagination into their new creation. Every Pot Head has its own personality and expression and is as unique as the potter who created it.
