This is a fun activity in Hackney, London

Discover the art of pottery making at this laid-back workshop in Dalston! Learn how to hand-build and throw pottery pieces under the guidance of an expert. Perfect for beginners and seasoned crafters alike, this class offers a chance to unwind and unleash your creativity in a London pottery studio.

- Learn hand-building techniques using coils and slabs
- Get hands-on experience with wheel throwing
- Create bespoke pottery pieces to take home

You'll be working with clay, so expect a tactile and therapeutic experience. Your finished pieces will be biscuit fired and glazed, ready for collection after 4 weeks. Embrace the creative process and enjoy seeing your unique creations come to life – display at home or give away as handmade gifts!

Please note:
- This workshop is only for age 11 or above.
- Your finished pieces will be fired and glazed, ready to collect 4 weeks after the class.
- A materials fee of £5 per piece of pottery kept is NOT included in the class and is payable on the day of your workshop.
- Pieces are ready around 4-5 weeks after the class. We will send you an email when they are ready to be collected. Please check your email and spam folder. We will keep your pots in the studio for a month. If not collected in time, they may be disposed of.
- It is your responsibility to arrive on time for the class. Upon arriving to your class 30 minutes or later, we have the right to reject you joining the class without any refund or rescheduling.
- No cancellations or reschedules allowed.

*** Please note that due to the nature of clay, results may differ from expectation, including but not limited to:
- Glaze may vary from examples and are for reference only
- Texture created may not be shown in the final result
- Pots will appear smaller than what you created from class, since clay has a 15% shrinkage
- Pots may not be completely cleaned and may have small lumps of clay
- Pots may be cracked or exploded

 We try our best to mitigate this problem but these are inevitable. Unfortunately, the class is non-refundable, and we are only able to reimburse you if your work exploded.

Excellent pottery class for beginners. Our instructor, Jess, was very patient and helpful throughout. Could do with putting the heating on in winter though

Very easy to gift card. I think great value for money. The teacher was great. The only thing I would add is that there was no toilet, so we had to use a nearby pub and it was a bit chilly so wear layers.

Had an amazing experience (we did the pottery making taster - both wheel throwing and hand building), it was very engaging and fun, and with a very small group. Our teacher (Jaylene) was excellent and very helpful - making the class much more fun!
