To make sure everyone has a brilliant time there is a maximum of 3 children per adult.

Our very popular monthly family pottery sessions, for 6-11 year olds and their grown ups, are a fun hands-on experience where everyone will get stuck in, get creative and feel inspired. That's you too grown ups!  Our fabulous tutor Leila will guide you as you explore a variety of handbuilding techniques to create wonderful creations based on a monthly theme. Unless stated, you will be using real clay and your creations will be fired and glazed by our team after the event. These sessions are very relaxed and are intended to be a unique shared experience and a lovely opportunity to bond and share the magic of clay together. Maximum 18 participants in total.  ALL ADULTS AND CHILDREN REQUIRE A PAID PLACE. Your creations will be ready to collect about 4 weeks later.
