Beginners & Improvers - Ceramics x 4 weeks: 27th January
Is this the right course for me?
Ceramic Collection Times
CERAMICS COLLECTIONS:
Paint & Go: Your bisque painted ceramics should be ready to collect within 6 weeks but we will contact when they are ready for collection.
Creating Art from clay: It can take approximately 3 months to get through this process as everything needs to be carefully dried to reduce risk of exploding/damage.
There is a huge amount of post event production that you don’t see to finish your ceramic Artwork which is why it can seem like a long time.
**It would be really helpful if you add our email to your contacts so that when we send out the collection email (probably towards the end of the month), you ought to receive it - sometimes they end up in spam!
We will include a notice on social media once collections dates have been arranged.
Course Highlights
Arrival Times
We kindly request that you arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before the event begins. This allows us the necessary time to finalise preparations and ensure that the studio is ready for your arrival. Your cooperation and understanding are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You'll love our ultimate introduction to clay!
We expertly cover an extensive range of hand-building techniques plus you'll even learn to throw pots on the wheel! It is jam packed with useful tips, information, advice and support throughout. In fact, we're confident our course gives you a comprehensive foundation in ceramics in the luxury and tranquility of our purpose made gallery space.

Whether you're a complete beginner or have some knowledge you will be guided throughout. We have a number of set projects with enough flexibility to add your own creative stamp to help you build confidence in a variety of methods and once you're equipped with the skills, you can take your ceramic journey in your own direction, should you choose to.
Use this time to create to your heart's content. Equally if you want to join in our weekly projects (or want to top up your knowledge) you're in the right place!
