Throwing on the Wheel Experience
£65.00 – £540.00
In brief
Experience learning to make pottery on the wheel! A bespoke class in throwing, with private tuition in our beautiful courtyard garden studio in Shepherd’s Bush, West London.
Suitable for all ages and levels of experience. If this is something you have always wanted to try, come along for a one to one experience. Also great for something different to do with friends or as a family activity. Children as young as four love making on the pottery wheel. Creative, unique and fun.
We also cater to arts and design professionals looking for professional development, corporate team building and skills development for intermediate and advanced learners.
Included in the price
You will get expert private tuition and guidance from one of our pottery team members. All our teachers are highly experienced, many are practicing ceramic artists and potters and above all, all our tutors have a real passion of sharing their knowledge and love of working in clay.
PLEASE NOTE the class does not include firing. You may take up to two pieces of ‘wet clay’ work home on the day only. Any pieces left behind will be recycled.
You can choose to include bisque firing, which turns your work into ceramics. To book this, simply click here Bisque Firing. Please bring your order number to the session. You will then need to come and collect your fired work (please check our collection times page). Bisque fired work is then ready for glazing. If you would like to come back to glaze it, book online for drop in glazing sessions.
What will I learn to make?
If you’re a beginner, the first project is making a cylinder (tumbler, pencil or brush holder, small wildflower vase) and/or a bowl (coin/jewellery dish, ice cream bowl…) For anyone who has been before, we can give tuition in creating vases, jugs, plates, larger work… let us know if you have a project brief.
Cost
The cost is £65 per hour for the first person, and if you would like to invite anyone else to participate in the same session, the price is £23 per additional person per hour. The cost includes expert tuition, exclusive use of our professional studio, materials and tools, so there are no hidden fees.
