The Potter’s House is a great place to start your clay journey.  We offer a wide range of clay experience workshops, and try to tailor to the individual. You can join an advertised group or if there are four of you, book your own session.

Working with clay has amazing benefits, great for body, mind and soul.  We encourage you to work at your own pace and to develop your own style and creativity.  We offer hand building with slab and coiling clay, and throwing sessions on electric wheels.
