Course Aims
This seven-week hands on course offers a welcoming and relaxed environment where you can meet likeminded people while enjoying the process of creating and learning. You will explore a range of straightforward yet effective techniques to achieve impressive outcomes. By the end of the seven-week course, not only will you proudly display your finished decorative garden tile or house plaque and wall mounted green man, but you’ll also acquire the skills and know-how to undertake various other clay projects.
After making your tile and green man, you’ll embellish it using underglazes and glazes. All necessary materials and tools will be supplied for your convenience. Your masterpieces will be ready for collection 2-3 weeks after the workshop concludes; we will notify you of the specific date and time for collection.
