Unleash Your Creativity: Summer Ceramic Workshops with Cathy!

Get ready to dive into the world of ceramics with our specially designed summer workshops! Whether you’re drawn to abstract designs or find inspiration in the beauty of nature, we have a workshop that’s perfect for you. Cathy’s expert guidance ensures you’ll create a unique piece to proudly take home. She’ll walk you through every step of the process, making sure your creation is both beautiful and achievable within the session.

Here’s what we’re offering before the summer holidays:

1. Open Ceramic Modelling & Sculpting Sessions (14/07):
