Our One-Day Pottery Throwing Course which runs from 10am - 4pm (1 hr break at 12.30pm) offers a hands-on journey into the art of shaping clay on the wheel. You'll learn the fundamentals of centering, pulling, and shaping clay to create your own unique pieces. From cups to bowls. No prior experience is required—this session is suitable for beginners and seasoned potters alike. Please note: The course will run if we received a minimum of 2 bookings. ►What You Get: • An introductory workshop focused on essential techniques. • Studio clay, firing, and glazing for up to 4 final pieces of work you produced. • The satisfaction of taking home your finished artwork (available for collection 4–5 weeks after the course). ►Finishing & Decorating Options ⚠︎ If you do not select a decorating option, we will glaze your work for you. ► Optional Decorating: If you choose the “Decorating” option, you will be given a code at the end of your session to book your slot via the website. Please ensure you book a Decorating session 3 weeks after your original session date, this ensures your pieces will have had their "bisque" firing. If you don’t select this option in advance but decide to decorate on the day, you’re very welcome to do so—payment can be made at the studio. ►Collection Please email us 4–5 weeks after your workshop to arrange collection of your finished pieces. Once ready, we can store your work for up to 2 months—after this time, pieces may be discarded due to limited space. ⚠︎Minimum Age: Participants must be a minimum age of 16.
