12 week courses: People of all abilities are welcome to join. Although these are aimed at developing beginner’s skills, we will tailor to everyone’s capabilities. Over the first 4-5 weeks everyone covers basic techniques such as throwing on the wheel, hand building, mould work, decorating and glazing. After this you are encouraged to develop your own projects and ideas with the support of the teacher and others on the course. Cost: £340. There is a small ‘firing’ charge of £5 per 1kg of fired work, which works out at approx £1 for a mug.
5 week taster courses: In weeks 1-4 you will be introduced to different techniques such as hand building, throwing and decorating through demonstrations and plenty of hands on exercises. In week 5 you will be taken through the glazing process and glaze the work you have made. The cost of a course is £205 and includes all materials and firings.
If these dates don’t work for you we have ‘gift vouchers’ available. For more info please use this link
Please make sure that you can attend as many of the classes over a 12 or 5 week course as possible. In the event of non-attendance or arriving late to classes it is not possible to provide alternative studio time, or for a class to be rescheduled as our courses sell out. Unfortunately we do not sell vouchers for these courses.
Evening courses are in demand and we have a waiting list. If you would like to be added to our waiting list please email: courses@thekilnrooms.com
