Service Description
Unleash your child’s creativity with our hands-on Wednesday Pottery & Hand-Building After-School Clubs! Designed for young creators, these weekly 1.5-hour sessions give kids the space to get messy, learn core ceramic techniques, and bring their ideas to life in 3D. Throughout the term, participants will explore traditional hand-building methods—including pinch pots, coiling, and slab construction—while also having the freedom to plan, design, and sculpt their own unique individual projects and sculptures. With a maximum of just 10 kids per group, every child receives personal 1-on-1 guidance in a supportive, encouraging studio environment. All clay, glazes, and kiln firings are included! ✅Skill Level Achieved This course is designed for Beginners (or Foundation Level).
