Choose from 2 private workshop experiences:
1. Pottery making + painting (2-3 hours)
A fun, hands on pottery class where your group will learn to hand build their own pottery pieces from scratch and paint them during the session. All pieces are glazed and kiln fired after the class so everyone receives a unique, food safe keepsake.
Best for: groups who want a full creative experience and plenty of time to socialise.

2. Pottery painting (1.5 hours)
A super relaxing session where your group paints on pre-made pottery pieces. Each person chooses one piece from a range of cups and plates, then I guide everyone through painting techniques with lots of design inspirations provided . Everything is glazed and fired afterwards to be food safe.
Best for: groups who want a chilled, low pressure activity or have a tighter schedule. Also great for children’s birthday parties.

Minimum and maximum numbers
The studio holds 20 people maximum, for events with 20+ people, we can come to your venue for the pottery painting experience.
Minimum number for a private workshop is 8 people.
