Here at Claire McC Ceramics were aim to have something to suit everyone, from those looking for a quick taste, to those looking to fully dive in. Please find below descriptions of our 3 class options and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in contact.
One Day Pottery Experience
2 hours
£45 per person
Looking for a one-day experience of what its like to be potter? Then this is the perfect class for you. Come and join me in the studio, where you’ll get a full taster of the pottery process. During your session you’ll hop onto the pottery wheel yourself, really getting stuck in to the making and getting your own hands dirty. The other half of your session will be the time to let your artistic side shine through as switch into decorating mode, painting your very own premade mug with whatever design you wish. This class is the perfect option for someone looking to try it all in one day, and once your creations from the wheel are dry, everything will be fired and finished in the kiln and sent out to you. All glazed and ready to use!
This is also the perfect class for private groups, birthday parties, hen parties, work outings or anyone on a quick visit to the area.
Minimum number of people: 2
Maximum number of people: 8
Private Pottery Class

2 hours

Looking for individual pottery lessons, or maybe you’re a group all wanting to give it a go together? Then this is the class for you. Return weekly to learn and improve your pottery skills, spending time throwing and continuing to work on your pieces each week. Go a step beyond the one-day experience and go through the entire pottery process, making, drying, and glazing your own work. The perfect option for anyone really wanting to give the craft a go. The great thing about this option is that you can decide how many weeks you wish the classes to run for (with the amount you learn and experience being impacted by the number of classes.)
