This is a fun activity in Birmingham

Ever wanted to try your hand at throwing clay on a potter's wheel but weren't sure if it's right for you? This two-hour Birmingham pottery class is the ideal introduction to this fun, meditative craft!

You'll get to grips with the basics of wheel throwing, from essential theory and practical considerations to the best way to prepare your clay to ensure a smooth end result. Following a detailed demonstration, it'll be your turn to strap on that apron, take to the wheel and start throwing your first pot!

Don't worry about any messy mishaps as your teacher will be on hand throughout the session to guide you towards your first amazing clay creation. At the end of the session, you will pick your best piece to be fired, glazed and ready to collect in 8 weeks' time. (The firing of 1 piece per person is included in the price while additional pots can be fired at a charge of £10 each)

Whether you're treating yourself to a new crafty Birmingham activity, want a fun date-night activity or you're looking for a gift for the creative soul in your life, this class is sure to tick all your boxes.

Note that the class is taught in a group of 6 people unless it is a private session.

I would highly recommend this fun and relaxing experience. I took my two daughters to celebrate their birthdays for a pottery taster session and we had a great time making our pots which turned out really well (with the patient and expert advice of Hazel who gave us step by step tuition and kept our creations on track when they went a bit wonky!). It was a lovely thing to do together as one of my daughters now lives in Spain. We can't wait to collect our works of art once they have been through the kiln.

Would absolutely recommend we all really enjoyed - from age 15 to 80! Our teacher Esther was calm and encouraging and had just the right balance between letting us find our way yet also helping us come out with something at the end! A special time and special memories for all of us - we can't wait to pick up our pots!
