Get hands-on with clay in this playful mini pot throwing workshop led by local creative studio Design Junction. In this fun and engaging session, you’ll have the chance to create teeny weeny pots using a small table top potter’s wheel — a perfect introduction to the joy of throwing on the wheel.

Guided throughout by the Design Junction team, you’ll shape your own miniature ceramic pieces. Your pots will then be taken to the kiln and fired ready for collection at Design Junction’s Winchester studio (5-6 Kings Walk, SO23 8AF).

All materials are provided, and no previous pottery experience is required.

With up to 8 participants per session, this is a limited and intimate workshop — early booking is strongly recommended, as places are expected to fill quickly.

What to expect:

  • Hands-on experience using a small potter’s wheel
  • Expert guidance in a relaxed, supportive environment
  • All materials provided
  • Mini pots to be fired and collected after the workshop
  • Aprons provided!
