  • You will have a choice of colours and high-quality yarns to work with

At Art Craft Studios, we’re all about sparking creativity, building skills, and offering a space to try something new — whether you're flying solo or bringing along friends and family. No matter your experience level, you're always welcome here.
Our London-based studio offers a wide range of hands-on workshops, from pottery to textiles, all set in a warm and inspiring environment. The studio is run by Amanda — a ceramicist with a Master’s degree and over 17 years of experience — who leads all pottery sessions with care and expertise, alongside talented guest teachers Valeria & Clare.
We keep our workshop sizes small to ensure a more personal, relaxed experience. You can also book private sessions or family-friendly group classes designed to be as fun as they are enriching.
We're based in a unique London Location at Trinity Buoy Wharf, this riverside creative hub features London’s only lighthouse, amazing views of the O2, and a buzzing art scene. Make a day of it — explore the wharf, grab coffee at Orchard Café, or hop over to Canary Wharf for drinks afterward.
We look forward to welcoming you to the studio. See you soon!
