A one-off short session focused on playful making and personal problem-solving.

In Pot Luck, everyone begins with the same starting point - a single extrusion of clay. What you do next is up to you. You’ll learn how to join, cut, reassemble, and refine clay to create one small pot that reflects your way of working - whether that’s measured and minimal, decorative and precise, or sculptural and expressive.

Working small encourages patience, precision, and material efficiency. It also sharpens focus and fine motor skills - demonstrating how constraints can foster creativity and unlock new ways of thinking.

Prefer a clean, well-crafted finish? You can focus on form, surface and subtle detail.

Feeling curious? Embrace your inner architect - test balance, structure and space.

Whether your outcome is minimal, decorative or sculptural, Pot Luck introduces basic techniques while helping you discover how you like to work - and what you might want to try next.
