For those ready to immerse themselves in the foundations of handbuilding.

+ Structure

We cover the foundational building techniques necessary for anyone interested in starting their hand building journey.  Week 1-3 will cover building techniques, followed by week 4 and 5 of a core project. This project will be a personal project; let us know what you want to make, and we'll be here to guide you through the necessary steps, from concept to creation.  Week 6 will cover glazing and underglazing.. .the final step to turn your masterpieces into fully functional ceramics.

+ Lesson length

Classes are 2.5 hrs long, and sessions run for six consecutive weeks. Same day, same time.

Can't make all 6 classes consecutively? We can offer make up classes with our Flexi Class option, so there is no stress if something comes up!

+ No experience required

This course is ideal for both inexperienced potters (no experience necessary!) through to those who've had a few lessons, but need a refresher to improve their technique.
