What is pottery painting?

Pottery painting is where you choose a bisque and paint it. After that, we glaze it and finish it off in our kiln. Then it’s yours to keep! Just to make sure we’re on the same page, you won’t be getting behind the pottery wheel during your visit – the bisque is already made. You’re in charge of the painting!

How much are the pottery items?

We ask you to ‘pay for what you paint’. This means you’ll pay for whichever bisque you choose from our selection of more than 300. All prices included paints, firing and VAT.

London Prices start at £17 and adults start at £20.

Woburn Sands Prieces start at £15 for children and adults start at £18.
