WORKSHOP: Pottery Masterclasses: Decorative Tiles

Price: £95 p/p

Friday 5 September 10.30am - 5pm

A full day of Friday pottery fun at Haddenham Arts Centre! In this class we'll be designing and making tiles - you will have the option of decorating pre-fired tiles and/or making your own tiles out of a special tile body clay. We'll show you how to add carved details or handmade sprigs for 3D effects. We encourage people to come with ideas and designs that we can help you create, we will also be demonstrating multiple decorating techniques so if you're in need of a little help getting the ideas flowing we will be on hand to assist.

Pottery Masterclasses are designed to help you tackle more complicated ceramics techniques. Longer sessions mean we can make use of drying time and work on bigger, more detailed pieces.

All abilities are welcome - from complete beginner to experienced potters.

Tutors: Naomi and Georgie from Ely Clay Collective will be on hand for 1:1 support throughout the day. All tools and materials are provided, and firing of a set of tiles is included.

Schedule for the day:

10:30am-1pm: Designing and initial build stage

1pm-2pm: Lunch and clay drying time

2pm-5pm: Refining and finishing your tiles

Food: Tea and Biscuits will be provided. Lunch can be purchased as part of your ticket, there will be vegetarian and gluten free options and you’ll order your lunch from the cafe on arrival. Alternatively you can make your own lunch arrangements.
