Wheel-throwing for beginners

Time at the wheel with someone beside you the whole way through. You will centre the clay, pull a wall, and leave having made something you actually want to keep. No experience needed, and none expected.

• Price: [price per person]
• Group size: [maximum number of people per class]

Open studio

For people who already know what they are doing. Book a bench, help yourself to the tools, and get on with your own work at your own pace.

• Length: [session length]
• Price: [price per session]

• Price: [price per child]
• Grown-ups: [do parents stay, and is there a charge?]

Getting your piece back

Whatever you make is fired and glazed here in the studio, then waits on the shelf with your name on it. Ready in [turnaround time]. [Tell us whether pieces can be posted, and we will add that here.]

What to wear

Something you would not mind getting clay on. Aprons are provided; forearms are on you. [Anything else people should bring or know — tell us and we will list it.]
