This is a four-week course running on Tuesday mornings from 9:30am to 12:00, with each 2.5-hour session giving you plenty of time to develop your skills across the four weeks. Sessions for this course take place on:

You’ll be introduced to core handbuilding techniques—pinching, coiling, and slab building—while experimenting with a variety of tools, clay bodies and glazes. You’ll also have the opportunity to try the potter’s wheel, taking turns throwing and trimming.

Follow your own ideas or draw inspiration from prompts and demonstrations as you create cups, bowls, vases, planters, and more. This course is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some experience. Your finished pieces will be ready to collect 8-10 weeks later.

This month we’re switching things up—our monthly Paint Night becomes:

Punch Needle Night!

Friday, September 25 · 6:30–9:00 PM

Join us for a relaxed evening learning punch needle, a simple and satisfying textile technique that's easy to pick up even if you've never tried it before. By the end of the session you'll have your own finished piece of textile art to take home and display.

All materials are included. We'll provide a selection of prompts and templates to work from, or if you'd rather do your own thing, feel free to bring an inspiration picture and design your own piece.

A great way to spend a cosy evening making something with your hands, alongside good company. Drinks, snacks, tunes and good vibes included.

There’s something about sunlight coming through pieced fabric — little panes of colour glowing like stained glass, changing with the light through the day. That’s the idea behind this workshop, inspired by Bojagi, the traditional Korean art of pieced wrapping cloth.

We’ll start by digging through the studio’s fabric stash (there’s a lot to choose from) and picking out a palette that feels right to you. From there you’ll sketch a rough design, then get stuck into piecing your fabric together section by section — learning to finish and press your seams as you go.

You can zip through your seams on the overlocker, or if you want to try it the traditional way with a fully enclosed French seam (no raw edges, ever), I’ll teach you that too — it just takes a little longer.

By the end of the class you’ll walk away with a finished wall-hanging or baby-quilt-sized piece, and all the skills to keep building. If you’re dreaming bigger — a full curtain, say — you’re welcome to take your fabric home and keep going, or come back during open studio hours to finish up.

All materials included.
