Pottery Workshops in Cheadle
Small, relaxed pottery workshops in my working ceramics studio in Cheadle, Stockport.
A relaxed, hands-on pottery experience
Join me for pottery workshops in Cheadle, Stockport, held in my working ceramics studio in a relaxed, small-group setting. Whether you’re completely new to clay or simply want to spend a few hours making something with your hands, the workshops are designed to be friendly, creative and unhurried.
You’ll make your own piece from clay, and after the workshop I’ll take care of the finishing, firing and glazing for you, ready for you to collect once it’s finished.
Handbuilding Workshops
£45 per person · 2 hours · 2–4 people
No experience needed — just come along and enjoy making something from clay. In a small handbuilding workshop, I’ll guide you through simple techniques such as pinching, coiling and slab building to create your own piece.
With a maximum of 4 people, there’s plenty of time for individual help while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and sociable.
The price includes clay, use of tools, tuition, glazing and firing. Afterwards, I’ll carefully dry, fire and glaze your work in a glaze of your choice, ready for you to collect from the studio.
Wheel Throwing Workshops
£55 per person · 2 hours · Maximum 2 people
Private 1-to-1 session · £70
Have a go at throwing your own pot on the wheel in a relaxed one-to-one or two-person session. I’ll guide you through the process from preparing the clay to centring, pulling up the walls and shaping your pot.
With just 2 wheels in the studio, sessions are deliberately kept small, so you’ll get plenty of individual guidance and time on the wheel.
The price includes clay, use of the wheel and tools, tuition, glazing and firing. After your session, I’ll take care of your piece — trimming, drying, firing and glazing it before it’s ready for you to collect.
