9-Week Spring Term - Mondays

Service Description

Join us for our Monday morning, 9-week pottery class with Jean Sampson. Located in a beautiful walled kitchen garden with fabulous views, our sessions run weekly from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm, commencing the 20th January. You will have a break on the 17th February for half term and will finish on the 24th March. Unlike bigger teaching studios, we keep our class sizes small - a maximum of four students - so everyone has optimum teacher time, a dedicated wheel space and the sense of being part of a supportive potting community. Over the term, you have the freedom to learn and develop a variety of pottery techniques including hand-building, wheel throwing, and surface decoration. Jean will guide you through a series of projects and techniques including altering thrown pieces, faceting on the wheel, and making composite pieces. There is also plenty of opportunity to explore your interests and gain knowledge from our wonderful ceramics community. The nine-week course costs £450 which includes all of the tools and materials you may need including your first 1/2 bag of clay and access to our library of under-glazes, slips, oxides, and glazes. There is also the all-important tea, coffee, and biscuits provided each session. There is a small additional charge for firing your pieces.
