EXPLORE YOUR CREATIVE SIDE

A relaxing, tactile and fun workshop where guests design and create their very own bespoke clay pot. In our clay workshop, delegates will enjoy the calming and sensory experience of working with clay – the perfect balance of mindfulness and playful fun.

Hosted by our expert, delegates will be guided through each step. First, they will learn traditional potters’ slab building techniques to create their pot. Then things get really creative and guests are encouraged to explore their creative side, by making clay for their pot. They could decorate their pot with clay shapes, print messages into the clay with letter stampers, make stylish flowers, make it into a cute animal, a funny face, or whatever they wish!

Each delegate will have the freedom to create their own design, with guidance from our tutor, so that the group can enjoy the shared experience of learning a new skill together, while expressing themselves with their own personalised project. This approach makes the workshop suitable for all abilities, as the pot is supposed to be unique, not perfect! If time allows, guests can use their left over clay to create trinket dishes, or anything else they wish!

Pots can then be left as they are, displayed with their plant inside, or we’ll advise on how to glaze, or paint pots if guests would like to do so at a later date. At the end of the activity, each delegate will take home a pot that is as unique as they are!

We also run a Christmas Clay Workshop, where guests are given white clay to create bespoke hanging Christmas tree decorations / trinket dishes / anything they wish! Information available on request.
