Ceramic Chicken Workshop | Create a Beautiful Clay Garden Chook

Join us for a creative and relaxing day at Samford Potters Collective as we guide you step-by-step through building, sculpting and decorating your very own ceramic garden chook.

Designed with both quality and creativity in mind, this workshop will teach you techniques to create a finished piece you'll be proud to display for years to come.

Whether you're a complete beginner or have some clay experience, our experienced instructor will guide you through the entire process, helping you refine shapes, add character and detail, and apply colour using underglazes to bring your chook to life.

At Samford Potters Collective, we're passionate about helping people create pieces that are both fun to make and beautiful to display. This isn't a "quick and rustic" clay project—our focus is on guiding you through techniques that help you achieve a refined, finished result while enjoying a relaxed and welcoming studio experience.

Nestled on five acres in the beautiful Samford Valley, our purpose-built pottery studio offers plenty of easy parking, a supportive community atmosphere and the perfect setting to spend a few creative hours with clay.

Spaces are limited, and our specialty workshops often sell out, so book early to secure your seat at the table.

Come and create a garden chook you'll be proud to show off!
