Shape & Shade Class

 

Duration: 2h

  • 2 hours of guided learning and hands-on crafting.
  • Suitable for ages 12+. (See FAQ below for details.)
  • Learn the art of shaping clay with just your hands, delving into techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab building to bring your clay creations to life.
  • You can personalize your piece with our underglaze paint on the same day.
  • Dig your hands into the cooling clay and explore your creativity
    surrounded by your pals.
  • After crafting your pieces, you have the option to take them home to air dry. These air-dried creations serve as beautiful decorative items, though they are quite delicate and not suited for practical applications.
  • If you’re looking for a glossy, waterproof, and food-safe finish, we provide kiln firing services for an additional £10. Your finished pottery will be available for collection within 4 to 6 weeks.
  • This class does not offer wheel throwing. If you are interested in gaining experience in wheel throwing, you might consider trying the Bon-Build Class.

We recommend purchasing these options when booking your session online. If not, these options can be paid for in-store. Please remember to clean up any food waste at the end of your session.
