Next: 6 Aug, 11:45am–12:45pm

Hub £25 8yrs+

Book a one-hour slot and try pottery throwing on the wheel with Natalie Reynolds. This relaxed, hands-on session is a chance to experience the thrill of shaping clay as it spins on the wheel. This is a “have a go” experience. Pottery throwing takes practice, so if you’re new, don’t worry about making a perfect pot, enjoy learning something new!

You’ll be guided through the basics of throwing and have time to create as many pots as you can during your session. It’s all about experimenting, having fun and enjoying the process.

At the end of your session, you can choose your favourite pot to be professionally fired. Once it has been kiln-fired, it will be ready to collect.
