About the workshop

Join ceramicist Kevin Jenkins for a relaxed, hands-on pottery session designed around your interests and experience.

This bespoke three-hour workshop can include hand building, slab building and throwing on the pottery wheel. Before your session, you’ll agree a project with Kevin, who will guide you through the making process and introduce you to the techniques you need to create your piece.

The workshop is suitable for beginners and is designed to give you a good foundation of pottery skills that you can continue to develop.

Up to 4 people per session.

What you'll make

Your project will be agreed with Kevin before the workshop, allowing the session to be tailored to your interests and experience.

By the end of the three hours, you should have a completed piece ready to be dried and fired. Materials and kiln firing are included in the workshop fee.

Please note that there may be a wait for kiln space, so your finished piece may not be ready immediately after the session.
