More information about this Course


01. Who is this course for?
The course is designed to give you a flavour of what pottery is about and learn some basic ceramic techniques such as pinch, slab and coil pots. The day will include demonstrations to support learning but you may then use the techniques taught to experiment and enjoy going where the clay takes you.

This course is aimed at all learners with a desire to know more about clay and pottery. We will look at the first ceramic techniques of pinch pottery, coiling and slab building.

The course is held in a purpose built, fully equipped Pottery studio and is taught by an experienced tutor and practising ceramicist.
