Details

This class aims to teach you more about the steps of pottery and understand the manufacturing process, while being in a zen space, where the only goal is to have fun! During this initiation, you will have the chance to create a small bowl or cup of your own! The course is dedicated for 5 people maximum, this semi-private formula will allow you to have more time with the teacher and to ask all the questions you have!

At the end of the course, I take care of the firing and glazing. Your piece will be available approximately 5 to 6 weeks after the course to pick it up at Café Central (a delivery option could be offered, check with the teacher).

An email will be sent to you when your piece is ready, so you can pick it up at Café Central. It happens that some pieces break along the way, pottery is a complex art with several risks throughout the process. In the event that your piece does not reach the final firing stage, we undertake to make a similar one for you (some additional delays may be incurred if this is the case). We care about your experience with us and we want to make sure that you keep a beautiful memory of it in your home.

This course is dedicated to adults, teenagers aged 13 and over are also welcome, accompanied by an adult! It is recommended to arrive a few minutes early so that the class can start at the scheduled time.

Material/Instructions:
- Have short nails
- Do not wear jewelry
- Wear appropriate clothing and shoes in a workshop

If you have a particular condition that could require accommodations, or if you have questions about the layout of the space, contact us by email before registering.

No refund is possible. If you are unable to attend the date chosen for the introductory course, please notify us by email at least one week in advance. In this case, we will be able to transfer your course to another date that suits you. If you have to cancel with less than 48 hours notice, it will not be possible to move the course. In such a case, we suggest you give this course to one of your loved ones. We are a small business and it would be impossible for us to find a replacement that quickly.

FAQs

During the introductory classes, you will have the opportunity to create small pottery pieces such as small bowls, ramekins, cups or even plates. To allow you to familiarize yourself with the techniques, three balls of clay will be made available to you to try to create an object. At the end of the course, you will be able to choose your favorite piece from those you have created. One piece is included in the course, but you will also have the option to take more for an additional fee on site.

We provide all necessary materials including clay, pottery tools and basic equipment. However, please note that there are some recommendations to ensure your safety and the smooth running of classes. It is best to have short nails in order to handle the clay more easily. Additionally, we recommend tying up your hair and wearing clothing and shoes suitable for working with clay.
