Join us at KeKo Club on selected Saturday mornings from 10:00am–12:00pm for a relaxed, hands-on family pottery session. Children and their grown-ups will each receive natural clay and be invited to explore, experiment, and create together. You might make a bowl, animal, little house, decorative plaque, keepsake, or something completely from your own imagination. There is no pressure to make anything perfect. This session is all about spending meaningful time together, sharing ideas, and enjoying the wonderfully messy experience of working with real clay. You will be gently guided through simple hand-building techniques, with plenty of tools, textures, and inspiration available. Complete beginners are very welcome—no previous pottery experience is needed.
What you'll get
After the session, your creations will be carefully dried and bisque fired in our kiln. You can then choose one of two options:
Let us finish your pottery: Leave your pieces with us and we will apply a clear glaze before firing them for a second time. Your finished pottery will be ready to collect approximately four weeks after your making session. This option is included in your original booking price.
Come back and decorate: For an even more complete pottery experience, book an additional family decorating session approximately two weeks later, once your pottery has been bisque fired. During the decorating session, you can add colour, patterns, and personality using our studio underglazes. We will then clear glaze and fire your pottery, ready for collection once it has completed its final journey through the kiln.
Session details:
  • When: Selected Saturdays
  • Time: 10:00am–12:00pm
  • Location: KeKo Club Pottery Studio, Newport Pagnell, Milton Keynes
  • Making session: £30 per person
  • Optional decorating session: £15 per person
  • Experience level: Complete beginners welcome
The making-session price includes natural clay, tuition, use of studio tools, bisque firing, clear glazing by the studio, and final glaze firing.
Every participating child must attend with a responsible grown-up. Grown-ups are encouraged to book a place and create alongside their child—the magic of this session is in making something together. Please remember that pottery is a slow process. Clay must be dried carefully and fired twice before it is ready to take home. Because every piece is handmade and firing involves very high temperatures, small changes, cracks, or unexpected results can occasionally occur. That uncertainty is part of the wonderfully unpredictable nature of ceramics. Spend a Saturday morning making memories from clay.

My Journey with KeKo Club
I never set out to build a business; I set out to build a space where people could breathe, play, and create. Pottery was my lifeline—hands in clay gave me healing, focus, and joy. And one day, I thought: why not share that lifeline with others?
That’s how KeKo Club was born. I call it an “art gym” because it’s not about perfection, it’s about practice. Just like you’d go to the gym to stretch your muscles, here you come to stretch your imagination. Some people arrive nervous, convinced they’re “not creative.” But once they sit at the wheel or start hand‑building, something shifts. Clay has a way of reminding us we’re capable of more than we think.
I wanted KeKo to feel like a playground for grown‑ups and kids alike. Workshops aren’t just about technique—they’re about laughter, snacks, and the joy of making something with your own hands. I write clues in rhyme, I send playful invitations, and I keep the messaging light because art should never feel intimidating.
Behind the scenes, of course, there’s plenty of juggling—managing bookings, fixing backend glitches, collaborating with local businesses, and dreaming up new events. But every time I see someone proudly holding their first mug or sculpture, I’m reminded why I do this.
KeKo Club isn’t just a studio. It’s a community. It’s a place where clay connects us, where creativity becomes a shared adventure, and where people leave not only with something they’ve made, but with a smile that says, I belong here.
