This is a fun activity in Gateshead, Newcastle
Come to Bensham Grove for our pottery workshop, where we show you how to use the potter's wheel before letting you loose to make your own pottery! You will have your own wheel to work on together and be able to choose which pots you'd like to have glazed and fired.
New to pottery? Don’t worry! You’ll be guided through the basics of wheel throwing before creating your own pieces, making this a relaxed and enjoyable experience for all skill levels.
**What to expect:**
- A demonstration on how to use the potter’s wheel before creating your own pottery
- Your own wheel to work on together.
- The chance to choose which pots you’d like to have glazed and fired.
- A break to explore the beautiful Bensham Grove house, featuring historical William Morris stained glass, ceramics, and metalwork.
- A glass of prosecco to celebrate Valentine’s Day!
- A printed photo to take home as a memento of your Throwdown experience.
Return later to collect your glazed and fired pottery, creating a lasting reminder of your creative experience together and a Valentine's well spent!
