THE THEMES

A rolling calendar of creative subjects

Each session focuses on a themed project — recent and upcoming workshops include Highland Cows, Spring Flowers, pumpkin carving for autumn, and Christmas wreath making — giving makers a clear project to complete within the session.

THE FORMAT

Guided, hands‑on instruction

Participants are guided through the process of making or building their own pottery piece during the two‑hour workshop, allowing beginners and more experienced makers alike to work on a focused project.

THE KEEPSAKE

Takeaway pieces and seasonal keepsakes

Sessions are designed so attendees leave with a finished or near‑finished handmade object — from decorative sculpted animals to seasonal decorations — crafted during the class.

What the day feels like

What the session feels like

Over the course of a focused two‑hour session at Potz Ceramic Studio, you join a small group, hear a short introduction to the project, then work with clay under instructor guidance to shape, refine and decorate your chosen theme. The pace is deliberately accommodating — the emphasis is on exploration and producing a memorable handmade object rather than on speed.
