The Clay Studio offers a wider range of hand-building and throwing pottery classes for all abilities.

Whether you’re a novice or an experienced potter, you’re warmly invited to join our classes, where two tutors will provide guidance in every class. We’ll cover a range of techniques, including hand-building, throwing, decoration, and glazing.

Additionally, we provide a supportive atmosphere and exciting projects and demonstrations to inspire and encourage new potters, while also allowing those with more experience to enhance their skills and build upon their existing knowledge.

Classes run for 3 hours Mondays to Thursdays 9am-12 noon, 1-4pm and 7-10pm, and also 9am-12 noon on a Friday.

The Autumn Term will run from w/c 1st September to w/c 8th December with a break for Half Term w/c 27th October 2025. We charge £560 for a 14-week course of 3-hour classes. There is a small additional fee payable per item for clay and firing costs. 

Please note that you can either pay in full or split your class fee into three monthly interest-free payments using Klarna. You will see this option after you click “Pay by Card” on the booking screen.

We have 9 wheels and up to 16 students/class, so you should be prepared to do a mix of throwing and handbuilding so that everyone in the class gets a fair chance on the wheel.
