Pottery Throwing Workshop

Please see below details of workshop that Berni will be running: This is a special extended session, especially for members of the Meetups Somerset Singles Group. As we are a group of friends, and some of you have expressed an interest in coming to a throwing workshop, Bristol Pottery Workshops are offering this day session ( with a social lunch break) for the same price as our usual 2 hour taster workshop. You will be learning to throw simple forms on the Potters Wheel for an hour, 45 minutes, then take a break for lunch, and return to build on what you’ve learnt. Extending what you’ve learnt is going to happen, and everyone is absolutely going to make something that they are proud of! Come to Bristol Pottery Workshops for a one-off pottery workshop! Fun, hands-on pottery classes focused on throwing on the potters wheel. You will learn all of the basic steps of throwing – wedging, centring, pulling up walls and shaping the clay. Suitable for: All levels of ability. Perfect if you are new to pottery or to see if you want to get back into pottery again! What’s Included: – Your own potters wheel – A wide selection of tools to use – Unlimited clay, only keep what you want, we recycle any items that you don’t want to keep. – Lots of guidance for beginners or less if you want space for creative freedom. Sustainable Practice: At Bristol Pottery Workshops we prioritise sustainability! You can recycle clay an unlimited amount of times before it’s fired, and so we charge for items separately to make sure that pots don’t get left behind! Biscuit fired items are £7 each to cover materials, firing, and processing costs. If you want to apply the finishing touches to your creations we offer Glazing Workshops, and we make our own glazes too! Your masterpieces of choice will be ready to collect a few weeks after the workshop. There are limited spaces for this workshop - however, if it proves popular another can be hosted at a later date.
