Ceramics workshop on the potter's wheel

- Introduction to ceramics: different types of clay and glazes, firing process, examples of different styles and ways of transforming clay into a ceramic piece

- Demonstration on the potter's wheel: kneading and preparing the clay, centring and modulating shapes: cups, bowls

- Each student has their own wheel to experiment and practise on during the class.

- Choosing a glaze, which will be applied by us after the pieces have been finished and first fired

- Everyone gets two pieces, which can be picked up once they are ready (approx. 2 or 3 weeks). We work with local clays, and high-temperature firing, which is ideal for use as utilitarian pieces. Drinking tea or coffee from a cup made with your own hands is a wonderful experience!

You don't need any experience in ceramics to take part in the workshop.

Classes are held in small groups of up to 6 people. All materials and firing are included.

We have aprons, but it is recommended that you come with comfortable clothes that can stain (it's just clay, it comes off with a wash!) and a willingness to get your hands in the clay!
