Ever looked at a handmade mug and thought, “Reckon I could do that?”
Spoiler: you absolutely can.

What to Expect

Dive into the art of wheel throwing in a relaxed, supportive environment. Learn the magic of shaping clay on the potter’s wheel — from centring to creating your very first forms. Discover the joy of making, the rhythm of the wheel, and the surprisingly therapeutic power of clay.

You’ll Get

  • 🎨 3 finished wheel-thrown pieces

  • 🔥 Glazing and firing included (all completed in-house)

  • 🍷 A glass of local wine or herbal tea on arrival

  • 💸 10% off any of our 4-week courses when you book a Saturclay or Wheel & Wine class

The Details

  • Duration: 2 hours

  • Price: $120 per person

We recommend wearing comfy clothes you don’t mind getting a little messy. Shorter nails make for an easier experience, and precious jewellery is best left at home.
