You don’t need to have any pottery experience to attend this course, although it might be useful as a refresher course for those who have dabbled at the wheel in the past.
All equipment and materials will be provided.
Aprons will be provided but please wear suitable clothing that you don’t mind getting covered in clay. Please wear suitable footwear.
Once you’ve made your booking, we will contact you via email to discuss your plans, aspirations and interests so that we can tailor-make the session.
