Working with our hands and clay is the oldest way people have shaped pottery. Handbuilding is a fundamental ceramic practice that allows you to form and shape clay directly, without the use of a wheel.

In this session you’ll learn simple handbuilding techniques in a hands-on process that connects you directly with the material.

Handbuilding is one of the most flexible and creative ways to work with clay, giving you the freedom to explore form, texture and surface.

Perfect for beginners or anyone curious about working with clay.

No experience needed.
