Come and get your hands dirty! This crash course in the basics of hand-building will open up the wonderful world of ceramics to you. Experience the satisfaction of making something with your hands and enjoy a playful morning being creative.

You will learn the basics of hand building with clay – pinching, slab, coiling,  how to join clay to produce bigger pieces, as well as applying underglazes to decorate your piece.
