Clay Education 2025

 

Clay Education is a comprehensive and immersive course designed for individuals who are passionate about ceramics and want to take their skills to the next level.

This ongoing course spans from February 2026 to mid December 2026, allowing participants to fully immerse themselves in the world of clay. The Clay Education program is divided into two semesters, each offering in-depth learning and exploration of ceramics. This program provides the perfect platform for personal growth and creative development alongside a wide range of teachers and a supportive community.

Throughout the course, participants will have the opportunity to learn various hand-building or wheel-throwing techniques. Our experienced instructors will guide and support you every step of the way, offering valuable insights and personalised feedback to help you enhance your skills.

Participants have the flexibility to enroll per semester or for the whole year. Whether you want to commit to one semester to explore a specific aspect of ceramics or dedicate the entire year to comprehensive learning, the choice is yours.

By enrolling in our Clay Education program, you will gain access to a supportive community of like-minded individuals who share your passion for ceramics. You will also have the opportunity to participate in exhibitions and showcases to display your work.
