4 session ceramic class: discover the potter's wheel and make your own cup or bowl set with Kim

Join Kim for a four-day pottery workshop that will take you through the entire process of creating your own set of ceramic cups or bowls on the potter's wheel. 

This workshop is perfect for anyone who wants to explore their creative side or learn the art of pottery, whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced potter. The workshop consists of four sessions, with each session building on the skills learned in the previous one.

In the first session you'll learn the basics of working with clay on the potter's wheel. Kim will start by teaching you how to centre the clay on the wheel, a crucial step in shaping your pieces. You'll practise this fundamental skill and begin to form the basic shape of your cups or bowls.

In the second session you will continue to refine your throwing technique to ensure your pieces are symmetrical and well formed. Kim will provide individual guidance and support to help you improve your technique and gain confidence.

The third session focuses on trimming your creations. You'll learn how to add a foot to the bottom of your cups or bowls to give them a professional and finished look. This step is essential for the stability and aesthetics of your ceramic pieces.

In the fourth and final session you'll explore the art of glazing. Kim will share her tips and tricks for applying glazes to your pottery to ensure an even and beautiful finish. You'll have the opportunity to choose your own glazes and personalise your pieces.A few weeks after the final session, when your pieces have been fired and glazed, they'll be ready for you to collect. You'll leave the workshop with a set of dishwasher-safe, handmade ceramic mugs or bowls to use at home.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn from a talented artist and create something truly unique. Sign up for Kim's four day pottery workshop and discover the joy of working with clay!
