WE CANNOT CATER FOR ALLERGIES

To get the most out of the courses we would recommend that you have some basic throwing experience - ie, you can centre the clay and make small cylinders.

The cost includes all materials and equipment including 2 fired & glazed pieces. Any pieces which you would like to keep over and above what’s included will be charged at £5 - £10 per piece (size dependant)

If the work needs to be posted this will be an additional cost of around £25 - £35 for P&P depending on the size and weight of the box. Also we pay extra for a ‘Fragile’ service to do the best we can to ensure no breakages.

If you’d like any further information please do contact us by email or phone: 07903937741

We look forward to welcoming you to the studio.
