This workshop is designed to be a relaxed, friendly space where you can meet new people and have the opportunity to create, learn and have fun.

The day will be split into two parts.

All materials and equipment will be provided.

All ages welcome (14 yrs & under must be accompanied by an adult).

The only thing you need to bring is an apron or wear old clothes and a packed lunch. 

After the workshop, Helen will carefully take your sculpture home and fire them in her kiln.

Your beautiful creations will be ready for collection 3-4 weeks after the workshop finishes. We will let you know the time and date. 

The cost for the workshop is £55
