Come and explore the hands-on fun of pottery and clay modelling! Maddy will guide you through an introduction to pottery basics, supporting you to make your own piece of pottery art from air-dry clay.

You might like to make an engraved dish, a little pinch pot, a serpentine candle holder, personalised wall art...if you can think it, you can probably make it. Or at least have good fun giving it a go.

This event will be half social chats with a bunch of like minded queer people and half fun, educational and interactive workshop.

All workshops are taught by queers, for queers.

What will we cover?

In this fun, hands-on workshop you will learn how to:

Condition our clay
Work with air-dry clay to make objects
Design and shape clay
Stamp, emboss, engrave into clay
Attaching pieces of clay correctly for strength
