pottery classes and experiences
We warmly welcome beginners, improvers (and real life proper potters!). Sign up for one to one, two to one or group experiences, or look at our regular weekly short courses, available in mornings/evenings.
We also offer seasonal workshops – come along by yourself or with friends and family for a relaxed session!
Please do call or email for more information
session options
Private 1:1, 2:1, 3:1
You can choose between throwing on the wheel, or hand-building. Sessions last for 2.5 hours and are scheduled on weekday mornings/evenings and some weekends (although these tend to book up quickly). You will make approximately 4 pieces, and can choose glazes so that they can be fired, glazed, refired and collected/posted to you a few weeks later.
1:1 sessions cost £80
2:1 sessions cost £140
3:1 sessions cost £200
These are ideal for groups of 4+ friends, family and colleagues. We can arrange in advance what you would like to do – trying out the wheels, following a hand building project, decorating and glazing pre-made items – it’s up to you! Pricing/timings will depend on numbers of participants and what you would like to do. For a hand building session we can fit 10 people – any more and it gets a bit squashed!
The studio is very close to several bars and restaurants on The Tything – perhaps create and then celebrate!

About Us
Carolyn used to be a lawyer in a previous life, but now actually enjoys going to work! She splits her time between making her own range of tableware and homeware for sale, and sharing her love of pottery with students, whether one-offs or regulars. Her family and pup also get a look-in on occasion.
