Question 1

Will my pieces be fired in a kiln afterwards?

Accepted Answer

No because we will work with clay which dries out to be hard and can be decorated with paints but the pieces will not be washable so they will be decorative rather than functional.

Question 2

Can I take my pieces home with me?

Accepted Answer

Yes you will need to bring a box with a firm base (about the size of a small vegetable box) to take your pieces home in.

Question 3

Will I get dirty?

Accepted Answer

Your hands will get covered in clay and you can wash them during the workshop.  Aprons are provided to keep your clothing clean but it is still a good idea to wear clothes that you don't mind getting some clay on.  The clay will wash out of clothing.

Question 4

Is it suitable for total beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes - I work with all abilities and all standards.

Question 5

Can i park at the location?

Accepted Answer

Yes there is free visitor parking - you need to collect a ticket from Create's reception.

Question 6

Can i attend with my child?

Accepted Answer

This is a session for unaccompanied children.  If you feel your child needs specific support and reassurance then do get in touch and we can discuss how I can best support them.

Question 7

Do you provide lunch if I book a day for my child?

Accepted Answer

Children who come for the whole day bring their own packed lunch and refreshments.

Question 8

What will my child be able to create at the workshop?

Accepted Answer

Each workshop day has a theme, giving children inspiration if they need it.   Children are welcome to follow the theme or  their own ideas—this flexibility lets them express their creativity while still having structure to lean on if needed.
