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)

What an experience! Abi is an excellent teacher, the venue easy to locate. A brilliant was to spend a Sunday morning. Will definitely be returning to refine the basic pottery skills I learned today.

The teacher, Hazel, was very hands -on and helpful. She was extremely encouraging and put us at ease. We all made two pieces and she ensured that we each had at least one successful piece to be fired. Thank you for an enjoyable and informative session. We would go again.

I came with my Sister in Law and we had such fun. It was a fab experience, we were nervous but once you start that all goes away. It is so relaxing and addictive and was made better by the fact we had a wheel to ourselves so we got to make more pieces than normal we were told. The teacher was excellent and she was extremely helpful. I would definitely come again and highly recommend.

Abi was patient with all of us. Her heart instructions were clear. She was natural and very quickly bonded with all her f us. My wife and I were celebrating our Silver Wedding Anniversary by making pottery for each other. We had a laugh and made great memories.
