This is a fun activity in Camden Town, London

Get ready to unleash your creativity in this 2-hour session where you'll dive into the exciting world of crafting bowls and cylinders. At this adults-only class, you'll enjoy 1 hour at the potter’s wheel and 1 hour hand-building. Our super-friendly and experienced tutor will be there to hold your hand through every spin!

Expect to whip up to 2 masterpieces during this class— it's a real blast for beginners! This is an open group session, with a maximum of 8 fellow pottery enthusiasts learning alongside you. Bring a buddy along or come solo to mingle with new friends who share your love for clay and creativity.

What's included:
- Instruction by a professional potter
- 2 hours of guided learning and making
- By the end of the taster class, you will have 2 masterpieces made by you (one thrown on the wheel and another one hand-built)

If you want to just enjoy the experience of the making process, this will be £45 per person, however, if you'd like to keep your pieces, you can pay to fire your pots in our kiln for £5 per person. After firing, you can choose to paint and glaze them at our studio (£10 pp/ph, or glaze them in a singular colour for £5 per person)
You can come and pick up your item(s) after 21 days of your event day, and we keep it for another 30 days.

All in all a lovely experience. I bought the two hour course as a fun thing to do on my daughter's birthday for her, me and my son. Our teacher was great - enabling and instructive with a good sense of humour. The group was supportive and chatty. I'm glad we went for 1 hour hand-building and 1 hour on the wheel as it gave a rounded experience. We were pleased with the pieces we made and I think I'm now hooked!

Emily was excellent. She was so professional and very kind. She very patiently took on helping our son with his modelling which he and I both appreciated. The place was welcoming and clean. Thank you!

Emily was so friendly and explained and demonstrated things really well. She was fine with going over thing again when needed and helped get things back on track when my creation went a bit ‘pear shaped’! It was great fun for our whole family, including our 10 year old son. Would 100% recommend this experience for anyone who’s always wondered about trying out being a potter!
