Be creative with Clay
Have you got a project in mind that you would like to make in clay? Then this is the workshop for you! We will be a small group of maximal 5 students, and you can create pieces with your own unique style. That said, if you are a beginner and would like some guidance and ideas on what to make, there is plenty of inspiration in the pottery and we can help with templates, formers and help how to do it.
The workshop will last ca 2 to 2.5 hours and once your pieces are dry and fired, we will glaze them for you. You will be able to pick them up ca 3 weeks after the workshop. This workshop is suitable for all skill levels and we will provide all materials and tools.

Payment and Deposits:
-
Full payment is required in advance of the course, payable to Nadine Blakemore.
-
Workshop costs include all materials, clay and glazes as well as firing 1 item.
​
Firings and Costs:
-
Problems with firings are part of ceramics and can be due to a variety of reasons. I will guide you through the making process and support you as much as possible. However, there are many reasons why pieces do not turn out as hoped or sometimes break in the kiln. These can be out of our control. The ultimate risk of failure lies therefore with you, although we do offer re-firings in case of glaze problems (where possible).
