Pottery wheel: from clay to your own cup

Participants shaping clay on a pottery wheel

About this workshop

If you have never sat at a wheel before, this session is built for you. We start with wedging the clay, practise centring, then move on to pulling walls.

Everyone gets their own wheel and the tutor moves between four to eight people. By the end you will have thrown at least two pieces and chosen the best one to fire.

Finished pieces are glazed and fired after drying; you can collect them from the studio around three weeks later or have them couriered to you.

What is included

Clay and all tools
Apron and changing space
Glaze and firing of one piece
Tea and light refreshments

What to bring

Clothes you do not mind getting muddy
Short nails; leave rings and bracelets at home
