The Wild Escape: Clay Impressions from Nature

The Art House, Wakefield
3 April 2023
9.30am - 3pm
Free to all

Spend a day in our ceramic studio and make your own pot inspired by nature with professional teaching artist Hannah Way.

Learn how play with clay to create your own handbuilt pot, using a range of natural objects we will make impressions into the clay to create your own patterned pieces. At the end of your session you’ll be able to paint your work inspired by nature.

All materials are provided for the session. Children will need to bring their own lunch, snacks and a drink with them and should wear clothes that don't matter if they get a little mucky.

All pieces will be fired and glazed ready for collection three weeks from the end of the workshop.

Ages 7-11, free, booking essential.
