We offer classes, workshops, courses, events and studio rental all hosted and overseen by our resident team of potters. Each of our tutor’s has a different background in ceramics from traditional throwing techniques to modernist hand-building approaches. They all share a common goal to make learning as accessible, achievable and enjoyable as possible. You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great!

Whether you are a complete beginner or an intermediate potter looking for somewhere to further your hobby, we're here for you. We are always introducing new and exciting options for our customers, so check out our calendar page to see what's coming up next!

We have three working studio’s situated on the 1st floor of an old warehouse building that hosts other artist studios and small businesses - making for a vibrant learning and teaching environment.
