Learn how to throw on the pottery wheel on this one day workshop in our ceramics studio.

Experiment with three different types of pottery wheels and be guided through the ceramic processes including: throwing, coning, lifting a wall and the introduction of tools. At the end of the session you will select your favourite four pieces, which will be glazed and fired through our kiln, ready for collection three weeks later.

This five-hour session is designed to maximise your time with your teaching artist, which allows you to spend focused time on developing your skills and improve your throwing.

 

Who is the workshop for?

This course is suitable for adults who are complete beginners or for those who wish to refresh their previous knowledge. You don’t need to feel confident in clay to start this course as all aspects of the medium are covered.

Do I need to bring anything?

All equipment and tools will be provided for you as well materials to explore all processes. We recommend wearing old clothes or bringing an apron in case you get a bit messy! If you have long hair we recommend tying it back.

Booking Terms & Conditions

Workshop and course bookings can be cancelled and refunded (less a 10% administration fee) up until 7 days before the scheduled start date. Our workshops support the work we do as a charity, and because materials and equipment are ordered in advance, we regret that refunds cannot be offered less than 7 days before the workshop date.

Bookings cannot be transferred between courses however bookings can be transferred to another person in the event that you are unable to attend on the day. In the event that The Art House needs to cancel a workshop for any reason, for example due to tutor illness, your ticket will be refunded in full.
