Kids Handbuilding Club

Service Description

Does your kid love getting messy, making things and getting creative? Our fortnightly Kids Handbuilding Club is a chance to have a play with clay, learn new skills and make something of their own! Each session has a different project, from making mugs and bowls to sculpting silly creatures and creating colourful decorations. Kids will learn handbuilding techniques like pinching, coiling and slab building, with plenty of freedom to put their own spin on what they make. Sessions are relaxed, playful and suitable for all abilities, whether they're completely new to pottery or already love working with clay. WHO CAN JOIN? Kids aged 5–15 are welcome! Parents and carers are welcome to get involved too! If you fancy making something alongside your child, just book yourself a place. You're also welcome to help your child with their project without making anything yourself. We ask that a parent or carer stays for the session with younger children. Chairs are limited, so please book a place if you'd like to join in and make something yourself. WHAT'S INCLUDED? Everything you need is included in the price, including clay, materials, glazing and firing. We'll dry, glaze and fire your creations after the class, ready to collect from the studio around a month later. WHAT SHOULD WE BRING? Pottery can get a little messy, so bring an apron if you have one. We'll have some spares at the studio too, and luckily clay washes out of clothes pretty easily! No pottery experience needed. Just come ready to get creative (and probably a little muddy)!
