Taster Sessions

Curious about pottery, but not ready to commit to a full course? Start here.

You do not need to be “good at art”. You just need to be willing to have a go.

Our Taster Sessions are relaxed one-off pottery workshops for beginners, friends, couples, small groups and anyone who wants to try clay without needing previous experience.

You’ll be guided by a tutor through a simple project, using either handbuilding techniques or the pottery wheel, depending on the session. The aim is to have fun, get your hands muddy, and make something you’ll actually want to keep.

What to expect

  • Friendly, beginner-friendly pottery sessions

  • No experience needed unless the listing says otherwise

  • Clay, tools and equipment provided

  • A tutor to guide you through the project

  • Glazing and firing included for the pieces listed in your booking

  • Finished pieces ready to collect after they have dried, been fired, glazed and fired again

Friday Night Clay Club

Friday Night Clay Club is our social pottery night: relaxed, creative, and a little bit chaotic in the best way.

Each session has a theme, such as Girls’ Night, Mix & Mingle, Couples’ Night or BYOB Pottery Night. Some sessions are handbuilding-based, while others may use the pottery wheel.

Most Friday Night Clay Club sessions last around two hours and include a guided project, such as making a mug, trinket dish or other small handmade piece.

BYOB events are for adults only where alcohol is brought or drunk. Alcohol is not provided by the studio, and we ask everyone to drink responsibly.
