A fun-filled three hour private workshop for groups of 3-6! This session includes two activities:
First Activity:
Make a slab-built dish with impressed decorations and added foot. This piece is draped over a plaster mould for shaping. Successful results are assured, don’t you worry!
Second Activity:
What you’ve all been expecting: wheel-throwing. Fast, fun and messy! This will be your "Ghost" moment. Emphasis is on the experiential aspect of this activity, as resulting product is not guaranteed. You’ll have two goes at the wheel.
Participants are given different glaze colours to choose from to finish their pieces. We take care of the smoothing, glazing and firing of all pieces. Everything is ready for pick-up two to three weeks after the event.
Dress code:
Casual clothing and shoes. We use white clay that will wash out from fabrics. Suede and plush fabrics not recommended. Long hair should be tied back.
