Read on for some common FAQs below
What does the pottery class involve?
You or your group can choose the theme and the length of time you’d like the class to be. Kay will suggest some ideas of ornaments or decorations that can feasibly be created during the class. On the day, clients are given the tools and materials to design and make their own ornament, with supervision or gentle instruction from Kay herself, who has extensive experience in teaching groups of all abilities. At the end of the class, all ornaments are carefully marked with the artist’s initials, and are glazed, fired and returned to the event organiser within two weeks.
Are materials included?
All materials for the pottery classes are provided, including clay, tools and paints. As it is a mobile pottery class, you just need to provide a venue with enough large tables to accommodate your group with plenty of room to get creative, and ensure that they all have suitable clothing or overalls to get a bit mucky!
