Carol - 25 November 2024
We had a fantastic afternoon learning Kintsugi. 2 great tutors explaining what we should do, supporting along the way, providing drinks, snacks and everything we needed to experiment and create. I'm not a particularly creative person but it didn't matter - it really is something that everyone can try. Great fun!
Elizabeth - 25 November 2024
An excellent workshop. Thoroughly enjoyable, very well presented and have learnt a lot. Thank you for a brilliant creative afternoon and bonding time with my daughter
Jonathan - 24 November 2024
Was a fun afternoon learning about the art of kintsugi. Lots of skills and techniques were learned and we had an enjoyable time. The teachers were very helpful and attentive. Only downside for us is that it felt too rushed to finish off the second piece, so could have done with an extra 30 minutes for the session.
Akiko - 21 November 2024
I was given a voucher for Kintsugi as a present and went with my daughter. We both thoroughly enjoyed the class. It was well organised, the teacher and her assistant were both enthusiastic and knowledgeable. They explained the procedures clearly and there was plenty of one to one help when needed. We both recommend the experience.

Iris Athanasiadi - 26 October 2024
Thank you for the lovely evening with kintsugi- a very interesting, friendly and casual experience- perfect way to unwind after work! The group was small so if you needed you could get lots of help from the teachers, and it was a fun time. We also got a kit to continue at home!
Tanya - 25 October 2024
Very relaxing and informative class. It was fun to learn and do, great that I got to take my creation home with me the same day. Snacks and drinks were a nice touch too.
Clare - 24 October 2024
Enjoyable workshop, very welcoming and inclusive. Would only have benefitted more from it being later in the day, as we had trouble getting a train early enough. Otherwise, 5*

Loved the course. A long due dream come true with this. The tutor was really helpful and they even run the course an hour plus just to be sure everybody finished his pieces. Thanks a lot for the Team
Gillian - 5 September 2024
Greatly enjoyed the Kintsugi class. My sister gave me a voucher for the session when I had recently been in hospital to cheer me up and it certainly worked. An open friendly space with green tea offered and all materials provided. Clear hands-on and individual instructions and support. There were about sixteen in the group, of varied ages and no prior experience. We all achieved at least one reconstructed pot. Satisfying.
Kelly Fellows - 26 August 2024
Such a lovely afternoon. The instructors were brilliant & made us all feel so comfortable. They helped each individual & we all got to take our creations home.

Enjoyed learning new skills. Tutor was friendly and knowledgeable.

Had a fantastic session learning Kintsugi. Everything explained clearly, lots of help offered. Would recommend the class
Gilly - 22 August 2024
My friend and I had a fabulous time learning an amazing new skill. Blu talked the group through a potted history of Kintsuki and then they gave precise instructions to us in manageable chunks giving us time to complete each section and giving each student individual hints and praise. They time managed perfectly enabling us to complete two objects. Can’t praise them enough oh and did I mention the takeaway coffee size cups filled with Prosecco and the. White wine a perfect evening. Thank you
Jacqueline - 22 August 2024
A great evening. Blue was excellent and gave good instruction, and was there at our shoulder giving

I really enjoyed this Kintsugi experience. The hosts were very helpful and attentive along with their assistance to ensure your remastered crockery was one to be proud of.
Amy - 19 August 2024
A wonderful class! We went as a couple and really enjoyed it, one of us with an arty background, one without. There was a real mixture of people in our group and everyone got stuck in and had a great time. The tutors were really friendly, super informative and made us feel welcome. I’d highly recommend. Thanks so much for a wonderful afternoon.
Emily - 19 August 2024
Was a great gift! My partner and I had a great time learning a new skill in a warm, relaxed and welcoming environment. The teachers were great and very hospitable, even went the extra mile to cater for my dietary requirements.

Excellent Kintsugi class with John.

Fantastic workshop ran by lovely and knowledgeable hosts - had a fun evening learning about the history of Kintsugi as well as making a unique gold filled pair of saucers. Thank you!
Lorraine - 8 August 2024
I absolutely loved my kintsugi session. I really needed a time out from life’s stresses and this was the perfect antidote. The team were great. Welcoming, easy to learn from and very encouraging. I’m rather proud of my two pots. I would absolutely recommend this session.
Lisa - 6 August 2024
Had a lovely few hours learning Kintsugi. Got to work on 2 pieces, great value for money and very helpful and friendly teachers. I would advise the more breaks you make the longer it takes to complete, so rushed a bit to finish in the allotted time. Still thoroughly enjoyed and would do again.
Bing - 5 August 2024
Loved my Kintsugi class
Debbie - 5 August 2024
Really lovely art space. Great tuition and support and extremely good value.
Sally Burgess - 5 August 2024
We had a great time. Easy to find. Friendly atmosphere. Would recommend
Shuying - 5 August 2024
The venue was nice and staff were lovely. However generally I was a little disappointed that we didn’t learn anything about the traditional Japanese Kintsugi method. I understand the use of the epoxy glue but would still be nice to at least know how it could be done properly. There isn’t much to the workshop than just break things and glue them together so if you are not into that, it might not be for you.
Joel - 3 August 2024
I had an amazing experience doing this class. The instructors were super knowledgable and let you go at your own pace. I would definitely recommend, perfect your any skill level.
Jane - 30 July 2024
We did the Kintsugi course which was good fun and with excellent tuition. The team were really friendly and offered plenty of support (and refreshments)!
Elaine - 29 July 2024
I really enjoyed the Kintsugi workshop. Everything was very well organised in a lovely setting and I was so pleased with what I had done that I bought a kit to do more at home. Lovely helpful staff too.
Dr - 29 July 2024
My wife and I attended the Art of Kintsugi course. Firstly we really enjoyed it. The session was good fun and the class leaders were friendly and gave clear instructions. Secondly we have now learnt a new skill. We purchased one of the kits to use at home, for the next time we break something!f
Lindsay Lucas - 28 July 2024
Exceptional course with friendly and helpful leaders.
Mairead Simons - 25 July 2024
Really interesting and well organised lesson. It was really good fun and unique. The 2 teachers were both really nice too. Thank you very much for a lovely evening!

Eunice Salmon - 3 July 2024
What a lovely chilled evening we had learning a new skill from such a patient tutor. We took away two permanent reminders of the event xx
Jenni - 2 July 2024
We loved our couples kintsugi course. Neither of us are particularly “crafty” but the experience was warm, encouraging and accessible. We left with 4 decent attempts to show off with!! Thank you John and Blue!
Constanza - 1 July 2024
It was a great experience! The only thing I missed was an explanation or introduction to the technique, history, original way of doing it, etc.
Kiren - 1 July 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed the kintsugi workshop, trying something new and leaving with a peice of beautiful art! The teachers were great, very passionate about what they do and explained things well step-by-step, including history of the tradition and demos. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere in a lovely art space. Definitely recommend!
Christine - 27 June 2024
A lovely setting. We felt well looked after and were interested to hear about the work of the centre. The workshop was interesting, . All materials were provided. However, the session was only 2 hours rather than the 2 1/2 advertised, plus there were a lot of people -about 20- so although the tutor knew her stuff, it was difficult to get advice. Personally I like a max of 2 participants.
Thais - 24 June 2024
Such a great session, a lovely experience all round. The craft was accessible but still engaging/challenging and the instructors were lovely. Atmosphere was warm and welcoming and everything was great value! Will a thousand percent be coming back!
Alex Dann - 24 June 2024
Great experience, teachers were really helpful and the whole activity was really relaxing. Highly recommend it!
Neesha - 17 June 2024
Such a fun experience with friends! Staff were very helpful and a great selection of bowls to pick from! Really nice venue and a fun afternoon with drinks and snacks. Couldn’t recommend enough if you’re looking for something different to do. Also great to come alone too as the environment is so friendly and easy to socialise with others!
Clair MacDonald - 16 June 2024
I absolutely loved the workshop Blue was a great tutor, she provided a very calm environment , I cannot say enough what a lovely experience e this was
Janet - 12 June 2024

Christine - 11 June 2024
A lovely day spent learning a new skill and well organised.
Julie - 10 June 2024
Brilliant session! Spacious , welcoming well equipped workspace. Friendly and knowledgeable tutors. Had a 10/10 day learning kintsugi. All materials provided, refreshments included, great value for money. Will definitely book again.
Alison - 10 June 2024
Very Interesting but too much of a skill to create something of beauty to be learned in a couple of hours. I was expecting more emphasis on the Japanese cultural aspect.
Giorgia - 6 June 2024
Lovely evening, really nice workshop with very helpful instructors
Karen - 5 June 2024
Great class. Lots of fun.
Chalene - 4 June 2024
Natty and Blue were great teachers - calm energy and super knowledgeable - we created some fantastic pieces and also bought the tools to do more at home! Wonderful time - would do again
sally - 3 June 2024
Had a great day learning about Kintsugi. The tutor was very good and helpful. Would like to visit again to try something else .
Claudette Forbes - 3 June 2024
Friendly, welcoming, well organised and taught workshop. Loved it
Carly - 2 June 2024
Great experience lots of fun and learning
Charlotte - 30 May 2024
We joined the kintsugi class and loved every minute. We were greeted with a beer, snacks and a very relaxing experience. We never felt rushed or like anything was too much trouble. We were offered refreshments throughout the class and encouraged to take our time but we were also encouraged to do two pieces if we wanted to. It’s a lovely peaceful sanctuary - perfect after a stressful day at work. The instructors were patient kind and clear in their teaching. We loved it
Laurence - 26 May 2024
Great Kintsugi workshop, with all tools and materials supplied. Refreshments were welcome too. Thanks all.
Fiona Chamberlkain - 26 May 2024
Most enjoyable workshop. Well explained and presented. I was delighted with the finished results. Plenty of refreshments and snacks available throughout the workshop. 4 stars rather than 5 because the files used as part of the process were blunt and need replacing making that task more difficult and time consuming. However, I would definitely attend another workshop at Art4Space .
Zoe Hiller-Wood - 22 May 2024
I absolutely loved the Kintsugi workshop, both of the teachers were fun, friendly and really supportive of everyone. I love the pots that I made and will be using them to hold jewellery. If you ran out of time, you had the option to buy a Kintsugi kit to finish it at home.
Fiona - 21 May 2024
This experience was gifted to me by my children so I invited a friend and we came down from Sheffield to take part. It was well executed and we both thoroughly enjoyed it .Thank you very much.
Rob - 21 May 2024
John and sian were brilliant, had an awesome time trying my hand at kintsugi. May be back in future!
Zohra - 20 May 2024
Amazing class! Had so much fun and would highly recommend!
Catherine - 19 May 2024
Lovely afternoon. Very enjoyable but went by too fast. Excellent teaching.
Susan - 19 May 2024
Great hosts who made it fun 🤩 . A supportive and non judgmental environment for beginners 😀.
Lisa - 19 May 2024
Excellent course and tuition, but not enough time to finish so perhaps a bit longer would be a bonus.
David - 15 May 2024
Very enjoyable course., and time flew by! The presenters were very friendly and inviting which added to the experience. I would highly recommend this workshop to others. Only criticism I would offer is that you need to find a better, and quicker way, to do the filing of the broken edges since this eats away at the time available, and doesn't really leave enough time to complete a second piece. The 'old' files seemed better than the 'new' ones, but are there other options? May also be wise to advise participants to keep to a maximum of 3 pieces to allow time to complete two items when sharing the 'tips'. Are there other options for the adhesive i.e. using the 2-part syringe products to reduce risk of 'sticky fingers'? Or are these too expensive?
Catherine - 13 May 2024
Really enjoyed my afternoon with you - friendly, informative and well organised. Very pleased with my bowl AND the rescue of my favourite mug. Thank you very much!
Linda - 13 May 2024
What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon! We loved the Kintsugi workshop. Guided beautifully through the process and became totally absorbed creating our Japanese bowls. Very professional; a warm and friendly atmosphere.
Jo - 13 May 2024
This was such a lovely experience. The tutors were really knowledgeable and welcoming, there was a perfect level of instruction and freedom. Highly recommend this experience.
Laura Hawkhead - 12 May 2024
A wonderful afternoon spent learning a new skill. John was patient, warm and friendly and the time flew by. Such a nice touch to be offered drinks and snacks. Can’t wait to try another class!
Karen - 12 May 2024
A great session, John was a brilliant teacher, making sure that everyone was okay at all times. Would have liked another 30 minutes as it got a bit rushed on the second piece
Anna Afferri - 12 May 2024
The workshop was amazing and John explained the process very carefully. We managed to bring hope 3 pieces and we love them!
Pippa - 9 May 2024
Wonderful class. It was fun, not too difficult, interesting, the teacher was great and very welcoming. Wish I lived closer so I could do more classes! Thanks for a great afternoon.

Marie - 24 April 2024
I recently took a Kintsugi class at Art4space. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. The class was a mix both practical and informative. I left with 2 small plates I worked on during the class and bought a kit to keep practising. I can highly recommend the class and Art4space studio.
Sue Bentley - 22 April 2024
Sadly I travelled all the way from Cheshire on the train only be told on arrival that the event was cancelled. Twenty of us got emails as we stood outside waiting to be let in.
David - 19 April 2024
The workshop was great fun. It was really well organised and well attended. The facilities were good. A nice environment to work in. The tutors were really helpful giving clear instructions and supervising closely. They worked hard to support each person to make sure we used the techniques well. It was interesting and enjoyable. Thank you so much.
Paula Watts - 18 April 2024
The class was brilliant. The tutors had the patience of a Saint... thankyou. For me I could have done with an extra half hour for finishing off. But realise there has to be a cut off time. If an option to pay an extra £5 towards other classes for children's classes was available, I for one would be delighted. Thank you for your time, expertise and professionalism.
Susanne - 15 April 2024
My friend and I really enjoyed the Kintsugi workshop. Friendly atmosphere, excellent instruction and support. A lovely and relaxing space, highly recommended.
- 15 April 2024
A really lovely short course covering the basics with as much or little support as you want from very helpful tutors
Paula - 15 April 2024
My friend and I loved the whole experience! From attentive instructors to beverages and snacks made available throughout the class. We both made two pieces each, which we were very proud of! Would love to attend another class in the near future.
Susan - 15 April 2024
I attended a Kintsugi workshop at Art4Space workshop yesterday and it was well beyond my expectations! Absolutely fantastic! Lead by Natalie and assisted by John it was extremely well run. I didn't expect to come away with two beautiful products that I made in the workshop. It was a fabulous afternoon where we were made comfortable and offered an array of refreshments and snacks. More importantly you could tell Natalie and John were experts. It takes a properly trained teacher to teach well and Natalie showed brilliant class management and educated us with simple, clear instructions, a truly gifted teacher 10 out of 10. The measure of a good teacher is did we learn? We certainly did and I came away with newly acquired skill and in such a short space of time again, a tribute to the skills of teacher and assistant. Another really important aspect is their communication was superb every step of the way. I will be telling all my friends and will definitely be returning for another session, also the studio has loads on offer. I highly recommend this professional outfit. Thank you.
Katrina - 15 April 2024
Fantastic experience doing kintsugi - the session leaders were really helpful and gentle and we were really pleased with what we were able to create at the end!

Liz Levesley - 7 April 2024

Lovely welcoming tutor who paced the class well to ensure that everyone left with a completed item. Processes very clear and the opportunity to buy a kit to do more. Easy to get to as well as very close to Stockwell tube. Great experience

This was such a lovely session, really friendly and calming and the instructors were so patient. I came away with two small pieces that I will always treasure. The music was brill too ;-)

My boyfriend and I attended the Kintsugi class, and it was amazing! John was a great teacher, reassuring us and guiding us, with patience and care. You get to make 2 pieces each with all the materials provided for you, and they turn out so beautiful and unique. You get free tea, coffee, beer, wine, soft drinks, and snacks to fuel you for the 2 1/2 hour class. They also have little Kintsugi kits you can buy for £12 incase you don't finish your piece, or if you want to continue your Kintsugi journey at home, which I think is a great idea! The class had such a nice atmosphere and everyone looked like they were having a great time - I could hear other attendees talking about what a great class it was! Would definitely recommend and would buy this experience for friends and family, 10/10!

Such a good class and lovely technique with bubbly atmosphere. Beautiful results at the end with an option to buy a kit to finish them off too! Great Scottish man hosting too

Loved the kintsugi workshop - Ellie was really clear with her instructions, and having John and Aysha moving around the space to support was really helpful. Thank you for a mindful afternoon.

Natalie was a great teacher! I took my friend here as a Xmas present and we both really enjoyed ourselves - so nice to do an activity that doesn’t involve screens, I really loved my little kintsugi bowl.

A lovely session! Natalie was so helpful and encouraging as we tried Kintsugi. Everything was provided included safety glasses and bags to transport our creations.

Absolutely brilliant. Ellie and John were incredibly knowledgeable and the pieces I created were beautiful. I also learnt a lot about the history of kintsugi
Diane Moore - 4 February 2024
Really great way to spend an afternoon. Easy to achieve a finished piece or two under the expert guidance of the group leader ( although very much at ‘beginner level) Feel confident enough to carry on at home and improve my practice. Would highly recommend for anyone regardless of ability or age.

Spent a lovely afternoon learning and doing the art of kintsugi. Our teacher John was very friendly and helpful, providing clear instructions and demonstration and attending to all our needs and questions. The selection of pottery was good, and we had time for 2 to 3 items. Very relaxing and fun in a nice space.

A brilliant session run; talking through the beautiful philosophies and history around Kintsugi & coming out of the session with 2 excellent pieces of re-crafted ceramics. Highly recommend as a solo or as a couple!
Bernard Noel - 14 December 2023
Such a fun evening workshop! Enjoyable, playful and relaxing in a superb atmosphere, plus you go back home with your own 2 creations after a few glasses a booze to get you in the right mood after a long day at work! That was a total success for us :)
