About this workshop
Continuous Handbuilding is a guided weekly class for anyone who wants to build confidence with clay, develop their technique and work on personal ceramic projects at their own pace.
Your instructor is there throughout the session to demonstrate techniques, help you plan and construct your pieces, answer questions and give individual feedback as your work develops.
There is no fixed project that everyone has to follow. You can explore techniques such as pinching, coiling, slab building, joining, texture and surface decoration while developing ideas that are your own.
Beginners are welcome, as are participants with previous experience who want regular studio time with more structured guidance and support.
What's included
Everything you need for your session and the finishing of your work is included.
01
Clay & materials
Up to 1 kg of clay per session, together with the basic materials needed for your project.
02
Studio tools
Full use of our handbuilding tools and studio equipment during the class.
03
Instructor guidance
Active support with techniques, construction, project planning and individual questions throughout the session.
04
Glazing & firing
Glazing and firing of finished work made during the session are included for regular studio-sized projects.
Before you come
A few practical things to know before your class.
Come with an idea — or without one
You are welcome to bring reference images or a project idea, but your instructor can also help you decide what to make.
Ongoing projects
Projects can be developed over more than one session when the ceramic process allows it.
What to wear
Clay can get messy, so we recommend comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little dirty.
