Pottery Wheel Workshop - Part 1 - Making

Begin your pottery journey with our hands-on Initial Making Session, the first step in crafting your own ceramic piece from scratch. Perfect for beginners and those looking to reconnect with creativity, this session introduces you to the fundamentals of working with clay.

Under the guidance of our friendly instructor, you’ll learn:

• How to prepare and centre clay on the wheel

• Essential wheel-throwing techniques

• How to shape and form your first pot or vessel

• Tips for working confidently and creatively at the wheel

By the end of the session, you will have created your own wheel-thrown piece, which will be dried to leather hard ready for the next stages—trimming, refining, and glazing in follow-up workshops.

Experience the joy of clay, get your hands muddy, and enjoy the satisfaction of making something truly handmade.

500g of clay and all tools will be provided (additional clay can be purchased during the session for an additional price of £5 per 500g
