Festivals & Pop-Ups
In the warmer months you’ll find us on the road with our mobile pottery studio touring music festivals. Wheels, marquee, the lot. Drop-in sessions, no booking faff, just jump on a wheel and have a go.
Community Workshops (Argyll)
We run workshops in community halls across Argyll, giving folk a chance to come together, have a laugh, and get creative. The clay is almost an excuse. It’s really about connection, confidence, and a bit of joy in the room.
We Travel – Private & Corporate Events
Schools, community groups, SEN programmes and more. If you’ve got space for a gazebo or a suitable venue, we can usually bring the wheels to you.
