Creative pottery sessions
Paint, glaze or hand-build with us
Marta’s workshops are small, relaxed sessions in The Fabode Studio in Edinburgh. Choose from Paint Your Own Pottery, Glaze Your Own Pot, handbuilding workshops, and monthly Guided Ceramic Plate Painting sessions, which replace one Paint Your Own Pottery date each month.
Each session is kept small, with up to 8 people, so there is time for guidance and a calm studio feel. Finished pieces are glazed and kiln-fired after your session, then collected once ready.
