August is the perfect time to slow down, get creative and discover the joy of working with clay. Whether you're joining us for the first time or returning to the studio we have exciting news about classes and tasters this month in Hammersmith & Barnes!

Clay Therapy Throwing Sessions

Experience the calming rhythm of the pottery wheel in our new gentle, mindful clay session where the focus is on the process rather than the finished piece.

Learn the foundations of wheel throwing while enjoying the tactile qualities of clay and the simple act of being present. Nothing is kept or fired, every piece is reclaimed and recycled, making this a fully sustainable experience centred around creativity, mindfulness and letting go. £65 per person.
