Attractions

Pottery Painting – choose from a range of ceramic pieces (mugs, plates, figurines and more) and paint your own design, fired and ready to collect around two weeks later
Print Capturing – hand or footprints from a child or pet, captured onto ceramics or clay as a personalised keepsake
Clay Workshops – hand-building sessions suitable for beginners, including techniques like sgraffito
Paint at Home Kits – takeaway boxes for painting pottery outside the studio
The studio also offers private group bookings for parties and celebrations, and gift cards for those who'd rather choose their own piece.
