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

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