Handbuilding Clay

Ever want to try ceramics or build on your skills? Then this would be the perfect opportunity. The main technique used during the session is hand-building giving you the option to make so many different things for yourself, friends or family - bowls, plates, sushi dishes, plants pots and much more. Beginners will be guided through the process of making things using techniques such as slab building, coiling, pinching, texturing, under-glazing and glazing. The more advanced will be free to create and those with experience throwing would be welcome to use my wheel (to be reserved in advance). Those of you who would like to learn about glazing would need to book 2 workshops. The workshops are run in English but I do speak Catalan and Spanish. They also provide a great opportunity for non-native speakers to chat and learn. They last 2.5 hours and basic materials are provided. Your pieces will be fired and ready for pick up around 10 days after. Cost: 37.50€/person. Bizum: 35€ (647911448) Block of 4 workshops 135€

This is not a typical ceramics class. This is a small, intimate space designed to help you slow down, disconnect from daily noise and reconnect with yourself through a simple, hands-on experience. In a city that moves fast, this group offers a different kind of plan: creating with your hands, sharing a glass of wine, and enjoying a calm, screen-free moment. All workshops are held in very small groups (max. 4 people) to keep the atmosphere personal and relaxed. No previous experience is needed. What to expect: • A guided ceramics experience focused on the process, not perfection • A cozy and calm environment • Wine or non-alcoholic drinks • Time to disconnect, without pressure or distractions You will also be able to keep your piece after it’s fired, as a reminder of the experience. This group is for you if you’re looking for: • A creative break from routine • A mindful, slow activity • A different way to meet people or spend time alone Spots are always limited to keep the experience intimate.
