Studio
What you’ll find here
The studio has space for wheel throwing, hand-building and glazing. Tools and materials are here, just bring your ideas. You’ll also find bisque-fired pieces to buy, glaze and decorate however you like.
You’ll learn how to work with clay, how to shape by hand, and how to explore different glazes in a relaxed, hands-on way. There’s always space to ask questions, share ideas and simply enjoy the process. You’ll leave with your own pieces and skills you can keep building on.
Build your skills over a month, drop in for a one-time workshop, or bring your kids and make together.
Want a more personal approach or to level up faster? The instructor focuses only on you. Some dates are open for direct booking, or write to us first and we’ll find a time together.
Bachelorettes, team buildings, celebrations, firing your own pieces, or not sure where to start? Write or call and we’ll figure it out together.
