March Workshop | 1 hour + Glazing

Fika Time!

Join us for this 2-part* workshop!

Fika time is all about taking a break and relaxing while enjoying a warm beverage or snack with some friends! In this clay workshop, you will learn all of the tips and techniques to create your dish. Each person makes up to 2 pieces if time permits (eg. 1 plate, 1 mug) in the build style shown. You can then book a second session to add colour using underglaze and glaze to make it shiny! We will fire it in the kiln once more, and voila! It's yours to take home.

The most important thing to remember when working with clay is to relax and enjoy the process of making hand made art! Clay is like magical mud for creating fantastic pottery and cool ceramics. First, you shape it into whatever you want. Then it has to air dry and go into a super-hot oven called a kiln, where it gets fired at really high temperatures (around 1,200Β°C!). After it’s been fired once it’s ready for the colourful and clear glazes! Finally. it gets fired again to cure the glazes to the clay.Β
