Beginner Classes

New to Pottery? Discover Our Friendly Beginner Classes. Perfect for Starting Your Creative Journey!

Join us for a fun and relaxed beginner’s lesson, no experience needed! Everyone is welcome, come as you are and have a go!

In this one-off session, you’ll keep up to 2 pots, which will be trimmed, glazed, and fired for you.
Want to add colour and personality to your pieces? You’re warmly invited to come back for a glazing lesson, where you can paint and finish your creations yourself. Please note, glazing sessions are not included with the initial class and need to be booked separately once contacted to ensure your pots are ready.
If you choose to glaze your work, you get to keep every beautiful piece you make!
All equipment, tools, and materials are provided. You’ll be shown how to throw a simple shape on the wheel, and then it’s your turn to get creative (and a little messy!).
You'll be contacted when your pottery is ready to collect or glaze. This process can take up to 8 weeks, so thank you for your patience.
