I had an amazing time, a great introduction into pottery that has left me wanting to come back again. Clover is an excellent teacher and was extremely helpful throughout the entire session. A great size of class as well, small enough so that you can get help throughout. And you get 3 pieces fired for you, I can't wait to see how mine have come out

brillaint class. I had never thrown clay before so it was nice to learn some simple techniques and make something to take home.

This workshop was a great introduction. Very friendly atmosphere and our teacher Clover was very clear and methodical. I’ve never done any pottery before so pretty pleased I managed to make 3 pots in the two hour workshop. We got to pick the glazes for our 3 best pots so I’m looking forward to getting the finished product back from the kiln in a couple of weeks!

We had a wonderful, creative afternoon with Clover, who was patient and very accommodating to a friend who arrived late. Highly recommend.

Really enjoyed it, friendly and reassuring teacher - good for absolute begineers (like me) but I'm sure good opportunity for those with more experience too.
