Lake Cathie Pottery

Pottery: an ancient and deeply satisfying craft
There's an uplifting and deeply satisfying feeling that accompanies holding, drinking or eating from a vessel you have created with your own hands. Experience this yourself through learning the ancient and engaging craft of Pottery. Delve into a focussed and inspirational Pottery Skills course in the supportive and welcoming environment of my home studio at Lake Cathie, on the mid-north coast of NSW. You don't need any previous experience to join a Taster or Basics program; classes are small, with plenty of personal attention while you learn. You will be guided through structured projects especially designed to develop skills and knowledge to successfully create fully servicable pottery ware. All your completed work will be dishwasher, micro, oven and food safe. Whatever your motivation for learning Pottery, you are certain to surpass your own expectations. You will be proud to use and share the beautiful ceramic ware that you will create.

  • Pottery Taster (4x 2.5hrs)
