Turn messy mud into objects of your own creation

Small, friendly classes

Inspiration, stimulation, relaxation, learn pottery techniques, develop ideas and create your own work at classes in Manchester.

Learn slipcasting, press moulding, throwing, handbuilding, glazing and decorating. Make the things you've always wanted. Make vases, mugs, plates, sculpture or anything you fancy.

One off pottery classes for organisations are available.

All work shown has been made by people attending classes and they are nearly all beginners.

Taught by Wendy

I went to art college for five years and teacher training later, training and teaching in the workshop and community.  I have wide experience of working in many situations with different people.

"What I get out of pottery is a chance to express myself in a fun and rewarding way.  From Wendy I learn so many new and varied techniques that I can take forward from project to project to create whatever I can think of.  Everyone is really friendly; definitely one of the highlights of my week!"
Michael

"For me pottery is a two hour escape from my normal life where I can be creative and learn some new skills.  The two hours go so quickly and because its so engrossing its also very relaxing enabling me to switch off from daily life and just focus on what I'm making.  Its also a chance to meet new people and enjoy a relaxed and friendly environment.  In short, I love it!" 
Vanessa

"I look forward to pottery because it gives me the opportunity and time to concentrate on something outside of daily concerns. Handling the clay is relaxing and restorative. The sessions also provide a supportive environment to develop creativity and challenge personal perceptions of skills and abilities."
