Sgraffito Plate - Two-day Workshop
30th & 31st May 2026
Book a weekend of creative time!
Have you ever seen people carving into leatherhard clay?
It is sooo satisfying! In this 2 part workshop, you come along on the Saturday to make with clay and paint your background colour.
Then we leave your plates on the table to dry out a little bit… then the next day, you come back and carve your very own design into the plate!
Carved Mug - Two-day Workshop
18th & 19th July 2026
Book a weekend of creative time!
This mug workshop is a little bit special, because, not only do you make your very own mug; you get to do the satisfying carving thing!
Day 1 – arrive, get excited, hand-build a mug
Day 2 – arrive, get excited, your mug will be leatherhard, and you can carve a design into your mug!
Mishima Vase - Two-day Workshop
5th & 6th September 2026
Book a weekend of creative time!
Mishima is a surface design technique where you carve a pattern and then in-lay colour into the carvings.
We make this easy by using a wax resist paint on your vase.
On the first day, you hand build your vase, using pinch and coil techniques, then the day after you come back to decorate the surface with carvings and paint!
Christmas Lantern - Two-day Workshop
14th & 15th November 2026
Book a weekend of creative time!
Get some ceramics made in time for a Christmas display!
One of our most popular sessions at Christmas time is to hand make with clay – then punch some holes once the clay is leatherhard the next day. Perfect to place a tealight candle underneath and see the light to come through!
This two-day clay workshop includes either a house lantern, or a tree lantern, or a combination of both!
