This two-day Ceramics workshop is for improvers who have completed a previous Ceramics course with us. During the first session, you will learn different ways of making ceramic pieces before biscuit firing them ahead of the second half day workshop. In the second session, you will glaze and prepare your piece for final firing in the kiln.
The aim is for you to increase your confidence using a range of medium and work on creating pieces in your own individual style. Please contact us if you have any queries regarding your suitability for this workshop.
