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.

We had an incredible time! Robyn was amazing, so generous with her help and made the process feel really approachable. We hadn’t done anything like it before and really glad we booked the taster session, it was the perfect amount of time to get the hang of it and get better each time. We ended up making three pieces each and were very happy with ourselves! Great studio with the most lovely people!

We had a lovely time at the pottery studio and would definitely go again for some lessons! Abi was an enthusiastic and patient teacher and helped with any mishaps to ensure we had a finished product that we were happy with, so the session was a lot of fun and very rewarding. Definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful time and threw some fabulous pots! Never thought it was possible but our teacher Avery expertly showed us the ropes and gave us encouragement throughout. She even had top tips for people with hand and joint problems. Really impressed and we felt very fulfilled at the end. Thank you ☺️

Teacher in this class was brilliant. She made it enjoyable and we were able to make quite a few pots. Only downside was that you had to pay £10 for any extra pots that you wanted to take home besides the one that was included in the class. Might be an idea to have some sort of package deal.

Date night for me and my partner really enjoyed it. Hazel was so patient with all 6 of us and took great care of us and explained everything perfectly. Couldn't recommend more to do something like this get out of your comfort zone. Was able to take 1 piece we liked each which was an added bonus

We had the best experience with Robyn! She was so kind, encouraging and attentive and we would recommend this class 100% to anyone. It happened to be a smaller session of 2 so a lot more intimate with so much help available thank you so much Robyn!
