About the Workshop
Sunday 5th October
10:30-4:30 with an hour lunch break
This skills based workshop will focus on throwing lids, galleries and on pulling handles. It is suitable for those that already have some throwing experience such as having completed a beginners course with us, or elsewhere.
You’ll be using our white stoneware clay.
The workshop price is inclusive of materials and firing, although this specific course is focused on building skills rather than generating work.
We will provide tea and coffee but please bring some lunch with you.
