This was the first pottery class me and my friend had ever been to and it was such a good experience! We had fun and learnt so much and got to keep one of the pots we made for free with it glazed in a colour of our choice. We want to book again so we get better and 100% recommend for anyone that’s a beginner and is nervous to try pottery - this class is worth it and will make you want to go back every week! Thank you so much for a great time New Dawn Pottery, we loved it :)

The demonstration was really clear and Dulce was very patient and supportive during the class. Maybe photos could have been taken although Dulce did offer at the end but we had cleaned everything up.
