About this event

  • 2 hours

Come and make your likeness in clay. In this two hour session you'll be led through the process of sculpting using a variety of mark making methods to create your very own flatback portrait sculpture. At the end of the session you'll be able to paint and decorate your work which will be fired and glazed in our ceramic studio. Work will be available to collect three week from the date of the workshop.

Who is the workshop for?

This workshop is for children aged 12-16. Due to capacity within the workshop parents/guardians are encouraged to enjoy a drink and a slice of cake from our delicious coffee house whilst their child attends the session!

Do I need to bring anything?

Please make sure children wear clothes which don't matter if they get a little mucky!
