Introducing... Young Potters

If you’re looking for a fun way to spend quality time with your little ones (or not so little ones!) join us for a pottery masterclass!

Do you know a young pottery enthusiast?

The first in a new series of workshops, Young Potters provides children and their guardians with a high quality pottery class where you both learn the basics of pottery, from preparing the clay to sculpting, to finally glazing your fired pieces. The class will not only give both parent and child the chance to learn valuable new skills but to also spend time together in a supportive, welcoming environment. Whether you're a pottery novice or have experience, Young Potters is open to all ages and skill levels.

Our first Young Potters has a festive twist where we’ll be guiding you through how to create your very own Snowman and Snowdog, just in time for Christmas!

 

What to Expect:

  • Explore your artistic side together

  • Hands-on experience with professional pottery equipment

  • Expert guidance from seasoned potters

  • Quality family time while crafting

  • Leave with a masterpiece you'll be proud of!
