Pottery making and Ceramic surface printing two day workshop
This weekend workshop is suitable for beginners to pottery or those looking to discover new techniques for surface decoration.
Saturday and Sunday 5th-6th July 10am-3pm
On the first day we will make suitable pieces of pottery using slabs made with our slab roller. You will also prepare your print artwork - you may want to bring some images for inspiration, but some illustrated books and magazines will be provided if not.
On day two you will refine your pieces and then use a variety of printmaking techniques in order to create surface decoration.
Your pottery will be ready to collect or sent out (postage will be charged I’m afraid!) having been fired and glazed 2-3 weeks after the date.
If you would like to make a weekend of it and enjoy the amazing Berwickshire coastline while you are here, we have two pods on the premises that sleep a couple in each one. Please select the accomodation option for this. The price is for two people and includes the workshop on both days, accomodation and an evening meal on the Saturday night. Our cafe is open for breakfast and lunches and home-baking for the weekend. A morning and afternoon Barista coffee or tea are included in the price of the workshop.
If you have a motorhome, there is also a site next door you can book. It is Starney Bay Campsite in St Abbs and is directly next to our property.
We may do some of the course on our outside tables so please come with clothes/ hats etc for all weather. Please wear clothes you don’t mind getting a wee bit messy.
You can park below our cafe as long as you respect farm access when parking as we are situated at a working farm.
