Join ceramic artist Katie Jenssen inside her studio for your very own pottery party! Whether you are celebrating a birthday, work do, hen's do, or just want to do something fun and creative with your friends, this is a great option. These workshops are also great as a work team building exercise or corporate event. Most workshop options we can fit up to 12 people in the studio. If you have more people and your own venue Katie is happy to come to you (if the venue is in Canterbury), please get in touch to find out the different options and pricing hello.pottery.place@gmail.com

You can bring along drinks (alcohol is welcome), a platter or even a cake. Katie will have your workshop all set up and you can relax with your friends while getting creative with clay. These workshops are designed for beginners and set in a relaxed working pottery studio.

These workshops are suitable for people aged 12+

The next available dates to book are in December. 'Anytime start' incudes the evenings as well.

Prices for these workshops are fixed and you can bring up to 8 people for the cost of the workshop. The cost for each extra person after 8 people is the price of the workshop divided by 8.

Glazing your work

Katie will glaze your with  work with a colour of your choice. Some workshop options the only colour choice is a coat of clear glaze where your piece will come out white and glossy. Please get in touch with Katie to see what workshops these apply to. For most of the workshops you will get a choice of coloured glazes (glaze colours depend on what Katie has available in the studio at the time).
