Your artist is there to help every step of the way.

Recent reviews of Sculpt and Sip Workshop

  • 4/5 from Caroline Hayden, attended Sep 2026: Teacher was great, a lot of us were late and she was very calm and patient. Enjoyed the pottery class (air dry clay) it was informative and straight forward. Liked the fact you could take the tray home and they provided a bag. My only negative was the venue: too dark and too noisy - they had karaoke going on downstairs and a comedy night going on upstairs! Overall though a great evening.
  • 5/5 from Joseph Ricciardi, attended Jun 2026: The class was really fun and easy to follow, the tutor was really friendly and knowledgeable, and was able to offer tips and advice for every question we had! Would definitely recommend and do it again!
  • 5/5 from Claire L Taylor, attended May 2026: Had a great couple of hours creating out of clay.Class was chilled and relaxed. Teachers where on hand for tips on crafting with clay.A lovely birthday gift for my sister.
  • 5/5 from Linda Martin, attended May 2026: Our teacher was lovely! Welcoming and helpful.
  • 5/5 from Jamal Abutarboush, attended May 2026: A nice day out, very relaxed in its format, but a lot of fun.
  • 5/5 from Dave, attended Mar 2026: Not something I've done since school but it was a lot of fun. Our teacher was great at leading the session and helping us out. I'd recommend it for work socials (as we did) or just for a laugh :D
  • 5/5 from Zoe Parker, attended Mar 2026: Laura was brilliant, helpful and chilled just what we needed. There was plenty of clay and lots of tools. thank you very much PhixFlow
  • 5/5 from Konrad, attended Mar 2026: The instructor was fantastic, the class was funny and enjoyable and I would highly recommend giving this a try!
  • 5/5 from Alice, attended Mar 2026: Fun class and great for team building. Staff were very helpful and allowed us freedom to create what we wanted but were always there to advise and help.
  • 5/5 from Brianna Lewis, attended Jan 2026: Really good fun - nice thing to do for a couple of hours on a dreary January afternoon! The only thing I would say it is a bit misleading that it's called Sculpt & Sip when you have to buy your own drinks - we thought maybe an arrival drink would be included at least - it wasn't until we read the info before we came that we'd need to buy our own.
  • 5/5 from Penny Martin, attended Oct 2025: The teacher was fantastic helping to resolve an accessibility problem so that all members of our group could participate. She went over and above. The class was great fun.
  • 5/5 from Natalie Arzumanyan, attended Oct 2025: The Sculpt & Sip workshop we attended was great; Mariana was attentive and helpful, guiding us as we created our sculptures (some of us better than others) Would have been good to be warned in advance that the clay may take up to 5 days to dry (as we had team members traveling back via trains/flights, so was tough to coordinate). Otherwise all good though, and we had a great time!
