SchoolsWe really enjoy introducing the next generation to our art and design techniques. We can tailor our activities to suit your curriculum and budget. We bring everything to you, or you can bring groups to our studio, which can seat 20 (we are very happy to accommodate larger groups over 2 sessions).
As well as complementing the curriculum for specific key stages, we are a great option for Activities Week, Book Week or as part of a whole school project. We can offer sessions in Pottery Painting, Decoupage, Mosaics, Block Printing & Wet Clay. Some examples of these techniques can be seen below. Items made during Pottery Painting & Wet Clay sessions will require us to fire them in our kiln and return them to you approximately one week after our visit.
Below are some suggestions but please give us a call and we can design a session to fit your requirements.
