EmailGet creative with clay and make something you'll actually use! In this hands-on pottery workshop in Bristol, you'll learn the basics of hand building and discover how to shape and decorate your very own handmade pasta bowl.
You'll be guided step-by-step through the process of working with clay and building your bowl using simple coiling and hand-building techniques. Once you've created the shape, you can make it completely your own. Add textures, patterns, stamps, lettering, or sculptural details to give your bowl plenty of personality. There are no rules when it comes to your design, so let your imagination take over!
To finish, you'll have a range of paints available to add colour and bring your creation to life. After the workshop, your bowl will be carefully bisque fired, glazed, and fired once more. It'll then be ready for you to collect in approximately 4–6 weeks.
We'll contact you as soon as your bowl is ready, and we'll keep it safely for up to 6 weeks for collection.
Whether you're trying pottery for the first time, coming along with friends, or planning a birthday, hen party, or team activity, this workshop is a fun and relaxed way to get creative. You'll leave knowing you've made something completely unique — a pasta bowl designed and decorated by you!

Anna Tordoff (She/Her)
Anna is a UWE Fine Art graduate, having discovered ceramics in her second year, being taken by its tactility, and grounding properties. Initially exploring hand building techniques such as coiling and slab building, creating sculptural forms reminiscent of nature. She then discovered throwing on the wheel, loving its technical challenges. Continuing to expand on both these practices, apprciating the endless possibilitiesof clay, she enjoys experimenting with new methods and techniques to create abstract and functional forms. The transition into teaching was natural hoping she can help others find there own joy in clay, believing its versatility means there really is something for everyone.
