Welcome to Wiltshire Ceramic Studio

Looking for Pottery Classes?

This year is the tenth anniversary of our studio which draws practitioners and students from all over Wiltshire and beyond.

Our current resident artist and instructor is an internationally trained and qualified ceramicist, who is as happy to help those just dipping their toes into the muddy waters of pottery, as she is to share her comprehensive technical knowledge with other professionals.

“Eli was a very patient teacher, knew everything about clay and I am very happy with my pots!”

Camilla Searle

“Tuition was really great, I loved the pieces we made. Would definitely recommend.”

Charlotte Glyde

“A fantastic teacher… I’ve made many beautiful things”

A Community Pottery

Our space houses two fabulous classic kilns for firing work/ sculptures, two electric pottery wheels, a slab roller, and sitting or standing handbuilding tables for expansive clay play.

Whether you’re an old hand or new to pottery, our facilities are available to you.

Workshops

Check out upcoming one-off workshops for all ages and skill levels

Date Nights, Family Dates & Parties

These are one-off sessions with everything included! Glazing and firing will be done for you afterwards, and your finished work will be ready a few weeks later. Choose from Couples’ Date Nights, Family Dates, Birthdays and more.

Drop-In Classes

Suitable for absolute beginners to more experienced clayists, we offer private, ongoing lessons.

More advanced students or independent clayists can, with approval, come just to throw/use the slab roller/handbuild without tuition.
