Who is this pottery class for?

This class is perfect for beginners and anyone interested in exploring the artistic side of pottery through handbuilding techniques. It is especially beneficial for those seeking a calming and therapeutic experience. Working with clay in a communal setting fosters a sense of connection and relaxation, allowing participants to enjoy the soothing process of creating with their hands while engaging in fun conversations around a big table. No prior experience is necessary; just bring your curiosity and a desire to unwind and create in a supportive and friendly atmosphere.

What will I learn?

• Pinch, coil, and slab techniques
• Creating various forms such as pots, vases, and sculptures
• Techniques for adding texture and decorative elements
• Surface finishing techniques

Do I need to bring anything?

All materials and tools are provided. Just bring your creativity and a willingness to learn! You can also bring your own drinks if you wish to enhance the relaxing experience.

Will I get covered in clay?

Handbuilding is far less messy than wheel throwing, but you’ll still be working with clay. Wear comfortable clothing that you don’t mind getting a bit dirty.
