Workshops

Alongside our regular pottery courses, we also run masterclasses and art workshops throughout the year — opportunities to explore new techniques, try different making styles, and create something a little out of the ordinary.

Sessions might focus on hand-building, sculptural work, or surface decoration, as well as art-based classes such as watercolours and drawing. Some are perfect for complete beginners, while others are designed for those with a bit more experience.

Upcoming workshops are now open for booking — browse the schedule below to see what’s coming up.

Watercolours for Beginners & Intermediates

Join award-winning botanical artist Janie Pirie for a relaxed and inspiring introduction to watercolour painting. You’ll learn techniques for colour mixing, layering, and creating depth and detail — ideal for those new to the medium or looking to refine their skills. We’ll provide a materials list closer to the class; you’ll leave with your own finished study and the confidence to continue painting at home.
