This workshop is an introduction to have building and participants are welcome to bring their own drinks to enjoy in the studio.
Firstly, you will be introduced to Abi and her brand Athene. Abi will give you an overview of ceramics and her inspiration to get your creative ideas flowing.
You will learn basic hand building techniques and get used to working with clay participants before beginning to create you own ceramic pieces. Participants can create pinch pots, trinket dishes or even cups!

This place is not accessible to people with reduced mobility.
Meet Abi, a ceramicist based in West London. Abi has been making ceramics for over 10 years after she studied fine art at Chelsea College of Art and in the last 3 years her passion for ceramics went from being a hobby to a business.
Abi is inspired by clay in it's natural form particularly raw clay, she rarely glazes her work and she wants to celebrate the materials themselves.
The workshops that Abi runs are warm and welcoming, she enjoys encouraging people to get creative and relax and her classes are a fun and supportive place to learn something new.
Although working on the wheel can feel intimidating Abi will show you it is actually great fun and anyone can do it!
Thank you so much for your kindness, Abi! I had a wonderful time discovering you and learning about your amazing job and ceramic techniques.
People, go and plan your workshop with Abi; you won't be disappointed at all.
