Take part in a creative 2.5-hour pottery session at Clay in Hjo. Learn wheel throwing and hand-building techniques, create 2–3 pieces, and get guidance from skilled instructors in a relaxed workshop setting.
Engage in a hands-on pottery experience at Clay's workshop in Hjo. This 2.5-hour session offers an introduction to the art of wheel throwing and hand-building techniques.
Begin with a demonstration by an experienced instructor, who will guide you through the process of creating a bowl on the pottery wheel. Following this, participants take turns at the wheels, receiving personalized assistance as needed. You'll have the opportunity to craft 2–3 pieces during the session, with options to add handles, decorate, or explore free-form building at the worktable. If you have a personal project in mind, the instructors are ready to help bring your ideas to life.
The workshop accommodates up to five participants simultaneously, ensuring ample support and guidance. Once your creations are complete, they will be glazed and fired by the staff. The finished pieces are typically ready for collection in 3–4 weeks, with shipping available for an additional fee.
Minimum of 2 participants per session.
Children aged 4–12 are welcome; under 4 years can attend free with a paying adult.
For groups larger than 5, contact Clay to arrange your visit.
Wear clothing that can get a little messy; aprons and slippers are provided.
