Get your mates together, choose your project and get creative.
A private workshop for groups of up to 8. This is your chance to immerse yourself in the world of clay in the company of friends, family or colleagues.
During this 2.5-hour workshop you'll follow a guided tuition to create your very own project as selected by your group. We'll show you how to use pinch, coil and/or slab techniques to create your very own masterpieces in a fun and social environment. At the end of the class, you'll leave your work at the studio to be glazed, fired and prepared for collection, or shipping, within 3-4 weeks of the workshop.
Groups are able to select from the following projects:
- 'Breakfast at Lucy's' - create a breakfast plate or bowl, and a mug, using pinch and slab techniques- 'When life gives you lemons...' - create a citrus juicer and tumbler using pinch and slab techniques
- 'Flower power' - create a mini plant pot and drip dish using slab and coil techniques
- 'Freestyle' - we show you the techniques and you create your own

Additional info
- The studio is located in Porepunkah, just off the rail trail. There is on-street parking but it is limited. We would encourage you to carpool, walk or cycle where possible. There is plenty of secure parking for bicycles.
- Although clay doesn't stain, we recommend you wear comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. You may wish to bring an apron if you have one.
- The workshop takes place outside. We will be undercover but please check the weather forecast and bring appropriate clothing to keep warm/cool.
- Please note, pottery can be temperamental, and while we'll do absolutely everything to ensure you pieces make it through the entire process successfully, sometimes unavoidable accidents do happen.
