Pottery Painting and Pizza Evening at Cattivo, Cirencester

At Cattivo Pizza’s Pottery Painting and Pizza Evening, the Old Kennels Workshop in Cirencester becomes a low-key studio where paint meets a 12" stonebaked pie. Located at Old Kennels Workshop, The Old Kennels, Cirencester GL7 1UR, United Kingdom, this two-hour session pairs a step-by-step, art-coach-led ceramics activity with a full pizza from the menu. It’s designed for anyone over 12 who wants to make something tangible without prior experience.

Inside the workshop, long communal tables, jars of brushes and pots of glaze line the space; the scene highlights tactile materials—bisque ceramics ready for color, water pots, and palettes—and the warmth of a pizza oven aroma drifting in from the kitchen. Key features of the evening are the rotating ceramic item each month, the one-to-one guidance from an art coach, and the included 12" stonebaked pizza. The experience is practical and social: you’ll sit, paint, eat, and leave with a finished piece to take home.

The Old Kennels building itself is part of the visit. Set in a town with Roman roots, the workshop retains workshop-style character and straightforward, hands-on energy. That mix of skilled craft and casual dining gives the event a local edge: it’s not a formal class, it’s a convivial night out that supports small-scale makers and relaxed eating.

Materials are premium and provided, so the only prep required is showing up ready to paint and to enjoy your pizza. Why book this? It’s a dependable option for a creative date night, a small group celebration, or a low-pressure solo evening. The age minimum of 12 makes it suitable for older kids and teens wanting an offbeat activity.

Check-in is 15 minutes early to settle in; no aprons are supplied, so wear something you don’t mind marking or bring your own. Tickets include the ceramic item, all paints and brushes, and a 12" stonebaked pizza chosen from the menu—meaning the night is a single purchase and a single, tidy memory to take away. Practical notes: allow two hours, come hungry, and plan light layers— the workshop’s atmosphere can be cozy.

Whether you live locally or are visiting Cirencester for the day, this evening combines craft, communal atmosphere, and real food into one accessible, hands-on experience. Reservations are recommended: seats are limited and the format works best with a group vibe, so book ahead to secure your date. The session makes a practical gift or a creative workshop for visitors who want a hands-on evening without a long commitment.
