Try Your Hand at a Potter's Wheel

About this event

We've all seen skilled potters take a round, moist, lumpy clump of clay, lob it into the centre of their potter's wheel and then use their hands and thumbs to form fabulous shapes. Demi Moore made it look easy and many of us have long harboured a desire to have a go too! During this one day workshop you will share a potters wheel between two and alternate between throwing and decorating a range of pots. Claude will guide you through the basics, and during the day we hope your confidence and skills will develop as you create a collection of pots to be proud of. Your work will stay with us to air dry and fire in the kiln. You will be able to collect your work a few weeks later or if necessary it can be shipped to you for a small extra charge. The £15 materials charge includes firing for a certain weight of clay.  If you are particularly productive, this may need to be slightly increased.  Claude will be able to advise on the day.
