Pottery making at SocialPottery involves a creative and hands-on experience where individuals can come to mold and shape own ceramic pieces. It’s a place where creativity meets relaxation, as guests work with clay to create something unique, either through hand-building or wheel-throwing.

It’s designed to accommodate all levels of experience, from beginners to more practiced potters, offering a space for learning, experimenting, and enjoying the craft of pottery. Plus, Social Pottery provides an opportunity to socialize, making it a great venue for parties and corporate events, where guests can book sessions online in advance to guarantee a spot for their pottery-making experience.

If your pottery gets damaged during glazing or firing, we’ll do our best to provide a replacement. Handmade pottery can be unpredictable, but we always strive to prevent issues. Embrace the creative journey with us!

Feel free to bring your own drinks, but note that only cans are allowed (maximum of 2 per person). However, for health and safety reasons, food and nibbles aren’t permitted in our Making Studio.
