Couples Workshop

2 Hours | Joint Experience

Discover the art of pottery throwing with this fun and relaxing 2-hour session, designed to suit all experience levels. Whether you’re completely new to pottery or looking to build on your existing skills, this workshop offers the perfect introduction to wheel-throwing.

This workshop is a fun and creative experience to share with a friend or loved one, where you’ll receive personalised guidance tailored to your pace and interests.

What will I learn?
In this session, I’ll guide you step-by-step through the basics of wheel-throwing. You’ll learn how to:

• Prepare and center your clay on the wheel, a fundamental skill for creating pottery.
• Open up the clay and begin shaping it into a hollow form.
• Pull up the walls to build height and structure.
• Shape your piece, experimenting with forms such as a small pot, bud vase, bowl, or trinket dish.

This hands-on process allows you to experience the joy of working with clay and developing a sense of control and creativity on the potter’s wheel.

What will I make?
By the end of the session, you’ll choose your favorite four items to be glazed, and fired. These finished pieces will be ready for collection in approximately 4-6 weeks. If needed, postage can also be arranged to deliver them directly to you.

Please keep in mind that this is an introductory session designed to help you get comfortable with the wheel-throwing process. Pottery is a skill that takes time and practice, so don’t worry if your creations aren’t perfect—it’s all about having fun and enjoying the experience!

What should I bring?

• Wear old clothes you don’t mind getting messy.
• If possible, keep your nails short to make handling clay easier.
• Bring a hair tie if you have long hair, as it’s best to keep it out of the way.
