During this wheel-throwing workshop, you'll have the chance to make as many pieces as you can using the skills and knowledge you pick up from your supportive teacher. You'll craft one to four pieces – typically people make about two – and these are usually cups as they are a beginner-friendly project.
Your handmade pottery pieces will be fired and glazed by your teacher. Four to six weeks after your class, you'll be invited back to the pottery studio to collect your finished pieces. You'll be asked to book your collection.
Class sizes are kept small, only up to 4 at a time, so you can enjoy dedicated time with your teacher and learn in a relaxed environment. It's perfect to enjoy with a friend or a date idea in London!
By joining our classes, you are also supporting our initiative to create a more sustainable pottery practice. Our goal at Rescued Clay is to use clay from construction sites to build art and communities. These classes will help us in the transition from commercial clay into fully rescued clay.
What you'll get
  • All materials and equipment needed to make as many pieces as you can (usually 1-4).
  • Your fired and glazed pieces to collect within 4-6 weeks.

Rescued Clay

5.0 (6)

At Rescued Clay, we believe that clay, often discarded during construction projects, deserves a new purpose—not just as a material for creating art but as a means to build connections and promote sustainability. Each year, tonnes of clay from London's construction sites end up in landfill. By rescuing this material, we reduce waste while creating opportunities for sustainable practices. Clay holds a unique place in both art and community – it connects us figuratively by bringing people together and literally as a binding material that can incorporate other forms of waste. This dual role inspires everything we do.
Our work spans three interconnected areas: reclaiming and preparing clay for reuse, providing spaces for learning and making, and exploring innovative applications for rescued materials through research and design. Together, these efforts form a holistic approach to sustainability, creativity, and community building.
