Discover the full process of wheel-thrown pottery in this immersive two-day workshop. Perfect for beginners as well as those looking to refine their throwing skills, the Complete Wheel Experience will take you from your very first throw through to finishing and decorating your own unique ceramic pieces.
Day 1 – Throwing (Saturday, 10am–3pm)
Saturday is all about making on the wheel. With plenty of step-by-step guidance in a small group (maximum 4 participants), you’ll learn how to centre, pull, and shape clay on the wheel. By the end of the day, you’ll have several freshly thrown pieces ready to refine.
Day 2 – Turning & Decorating (Sunday, 10am–3pm)
On Sunday, we return to your pieces to turn, refine, and decorate. You’ll learn how to trim your pots, add handles or other elements, and experiment with surface decoration techniques such as texture, coloured slips, and stamping.
At the end of the weekend, you’ll have a complete set of personalised pieces – from coffee cups or tapas bowls (depending on your chosen weekend) – ready to be glazed and fired.
Workshop Details
• Duration: 2 days, 10am–3pm each day
• Price: £325 per person
• Group size: Maximum of 4 participants for plenty of individual guidance
• Includes: Tuition, clay, use of tools, firing and glazing of your finished pieces
