Clay & Sip Pottery Wheel Class
Throw on the pottery wheel, BYO wine, make your own ceramics - no experience needed.
Immerse yourself in a 2-hour wheel throwing pottery class in our ceramic studio nestled in Sydney Inner West's Drummoyne. Unwind as you learn the art of turning stoneware clay on a pottery wheel - all while indulging in a glass of wine.
What you'll do:
Demonstration. Your experienced ceramics instructor kicks things off with a wheel-throwing demo, showing you the techniques you'll need to shape stoneware clay into a bowl, cup or plant pot.
Relax while you sip. Settle in with a glass of wine (BYO) and our complimentary cheese & crackers while you get hands-on at the wheel. It's the perfect way to unwind after a busy week.
Help at hand. With a maximum of 8 students per class, you'll get plenty of one-on-one guidance from your instructor - so even if your first few attempts wobble, you've got support every step of the way.
The results. Throw as many pieces as you like during your session to practise and develop your skills, then choose your favourite pieces to keep, with the class covering two pieces.
We finish the pottery for you. Once class wraps up, we trim, fire, glaze (your choice from our range of studio glazes), and fire your pieces again. Your finished, food-safe ceramics - microwave, dishwasher and oven safe. Want to keep more than 2 pieces? Extra pieces can be finished for just $10 each, and postage is available if you can't make it back in.
