Potter's Wheel
Taster Sessions
Have you always wanted to have a go on a Potter's Wheel? You can book a wheel taster session with one of our experts who will teach you the basics in wheel throwing and help you create wheel thrown pieces.
​
Please have a read of the useful information below before you book.
These are small workshops of between 1 – 4 people and are suitable for ages 13 years and up. You will receive direct tuition and guidance in the creation of ceramic bowls and/or cylinders. We will provide all the clay, tools, equipment and kiln firing to make your pieces.
​
Taster sessions are currently available on selected Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 6pm.
2 hour session for 1 person £110
2.5 hour session for 2 people, £180
3 hour session for 3 people, £270 (please note we have 2 wheels so each person will spend some time ‘off’ wheel)

The cost includes firing of your thrown items and the paints and glazing of your pieces. Fired pieces will be ready in 4 – 5 weeks. Once fired you can book back into the studio to paint your pieces. The price of painting them is included in your session. You can order delicious food and drinks from our menu on the day.
