Step into the rhythm of clay and create your own collection from start to finish.
Across ten relaxed evenings, you’ll learn, experiment, and grow your confidence on the wheel — finding calm, focus, and joy in the process.

What You’ll Learn

Each week builds your skills and creative voice as you move from first touch to finished ceramics:

1️⃣ Meet the clay – learn to centre and throw your first simple shapes
2️⃣ Form & flow – explore bowls, cylinders, and the movement of the wheel
3️⃣ Confidence & control – improve consistency and technique
4️⃣ Trimming & finishing – refine forms and clean your bases
5️⃣ Handles & function – create mugs, jugs, and everyday pieces
6️⃣ Exploring height & sets – build matching forms and balanced proportions
7️⃣ Surface design – add texture, slip, and carving
8️⃣ Personal style – experiment and develop your own aesthetic
9️⃣ Preparation for glazing – smooth, clean, and plan your finishes
🔟 Glazing & celebration – bring colour to your work, then tea, biscuits & prosecco to celebrate

10 guided sessions (2 hrs each)
All tools, clay, glazes & two kiln firings
Up to 10 finished pieces to collect
Tea, coffee & biscuits each week

Why You’ll Love It

A full creative journey — from raw clay to a personal collection
Small, friendly group with individual guidance
Calming, grounding, and deeply satisfying
The perfect mid-winter ritual to slow down and reconnect

Your final evening ends with a quiet celebration — your table filled with your creations, a warm cup (or glass) in hand, and that quiet glow of “I made this.”
