Come down to your favourite Hackney local for an evening of
pottery with your pals. In this fun, relaxed and inclusive workshop
we'll show you how to use the pinching technique to make small
cups, bowls, trinket dishes, plant pots or whatever your heart (or
the clay!) desires.
The session will be run by professional potters and good friends
Flo (Florence Mytum Ceramics) and Suzy (We Are Clay). After the
session Flo and Suzy will glaze and fire your piece(s) so you can
keep and use them forever. They'll be ready for collection from The
Star by Hackney Downs around 4-6 weeks after the workshop.
Beer, wine, cocktails and soft drinks will be available from the
bar and can be enjoyed during the workshop.
Materials, glazing and the firing of your piece(s) are all included
in the price. No experience necessary, suitable for all levels -
beginners and seasoned pros alike!

along but it is not a requirement.
You may want to cut your nails before the workshop as it makes it
easier but this is not a requirement
