Our memberships are currently full.
Pottery memberships are great for potters with experience who are looking for a space to practice independently. We recommend that you have completed at least 2 of our 6-week throwing foundations courses (or similar at another studio) in order that you have a good understanding of ceramic processes before embarking on independent practice.
What’s included?
12 or 18 hours per week access to the studio
A free 30 minute studio induction
Use of our 6 brand new Shimpo Whisper RK-3D wheels
Use of our studio tools and equipment for throwing and/or hand building
Unlimited use of our 8 studio dipping glazes
Bisque and gloss kiln firings (subject to our fair usage policy)
Your own private storage crate, to keep your own apron, tools, and materials (43x31x30cm)
Your own shelf for storing your work-in-progress
Additional communal member clay storage area
Choice of bagged studio clays (12.5KG) available to purchase direct at £15-18 per bag
Tea and Coffee

Not quite ready to practice independently?
We also offer an assisted membership for those who need a little help and support into independent practice. These transitional memberships will help you bridge the gap between classes and independent practice, as you’ll book scheduled hours each week in the studio with a teacher or technician, to ask plenty of questions and get help where needed.
