Handbuilding is a technique that allows you to create forms with clay using your hands, without the use of a wheel.  You will have the freedom to experiement and to create your own unique piece using various methods.

Come along and turn a ball or slab of clay into something unique that when dry can be fired in our kiln to become a lasting piece.  Recommended for ages 4 upwards.

Children need to be accompanied by an adult unless agreed otherwise.

Our taster sessions are just that, a taster of  throwing on a wheel.

It’s messy, the outcome is often unexpected but you will have a lot of fun enjoying  the process.

You can choose to just have a go & take away your piece on the day  or  have a go, leave it to dry & have your piece kiln fired.

We recommend ages 8 upwards.  Please chat to us if younger.  Children under 12 must  be accompanied unless already registered at poponin for clubs.

Taster is 60 minutes on the wheel but please allow 90 minutes overall.
