Class Outline:

Get stuck in to the wonder that is Hand-Building in this BYOB introduction class and craft your very own clay creation. Learn how to create your very own mug or cup using the pinch technique. Sip on your favourite drink and unwind with clay.

During this 1.5 hour session, you will be shown the coiling and pinching technique by an experienced instructor. Use your preferred technique to build one piece, before adding decorative detail and design to the surface.

Sessions take place in our beautiful Hand-Building studio, adorned with fairy lights, hanging planters and plenty of ceramic inspiration around the room!

No previous pottery experience is required—our tutor will guide you through the process, step by step. Your piece will be glazed in a clear finish (glaze included in the price), with the option to add a specialist glaze for an additional £7 to personalise your design. Pieces Ready in 3-4 weeks.

This is a group activity (max 16 participants) therefore there are other members of the public in attendance. It makes for a lovely bonding activity with family, friends, colleagues or a mindful and rewarding experience to attend alone.
