Pottery Art and Creative Classes at the Clay Half
We have a range of classes scheduled on a weekly and monthly basis at the Clay Half.
If the available scheduled classes aren't quite what you are looking for, then private classes may be for you. Throughout the year there are a range of visiting artists running workshops, so if you fancy trying specialist ceramic workshops look and see what is currently scheduled...
