The instructions and demos were clear and individual assistance was available throughout. The class had a nice atmosphere and we came away with a couple of nice pieces each, one made using coiling and another spun on the wheel. Overall was good fun!

I spent a happy morning making a coil pot and throwing two little (wonky!)vessels on the wheel. This was my first try at pottery and it was the perfect introduction. Alex gave us clear instructions, the pace was perfect for a beginner like me, and her relaxed give-it-a-go attitude and gentle help were pitch perfect. I can't wait to give it another go.
