Our Pottery Classes

We host regular pottery and ceramics classes in Central Auckland.

From small groups to individual classes, you'll discover the joy of hand-building techniques and/or wheel-throwing on the slow pace at a relaxed pace on our kick wheels. For added inclusivity, the studio also features an electric wheel.

From functional pottery to decorative ceramic pieces, the creative possibilities are endless.
