For eight straight weeks you will play, form and learn with clay.

This eight week series provides the opportunity to explore the hand building world of clay. Led by Fiona from Table Ceramics (www.tableceramics.co.nz), you will learn the three fundamental hand-building techniques: pinch potting, coiling, and slab work. You will then have the chance to apply or combine these methods to create your own unique pieces. Fiona will also help you as needed to bring your ideas to life. 

Beginners welcome, no experience necessary.

Nails + Jewellery

Long nails often mark the clay so I recommend trimming. If you would prefer not to it will mean you just have to do a bit more tidying up.

Clay gets into rings, bracelets and on bangles so I recommend removing these to save you cleaning them after your pottery class.
