About this class

Dive into the fascinating world of pottery. In this entry-level course near Münster, you will learn how to shape and design clay with your hands. We start with the basics, deal with hand modelling and explore various techniques for surface design. In a relaxed atmosphere, you can experiment creatively and create your own piece of ceramic.

You can use modern molding techniques and plate technology, which make it easier for you to model so that you can successfully produce several workpieces.

You can glaze these directly during the course, as we work with special glazes that can also be used on unfired clay. I will then burn your pottery for you.

I took the course together with my mother-in-law and my husband and we all loved it. Susanne is a funny and incredibly likeable woman who explains pottery so that you can take home great results!! It was definitely not the last time we were there!

We were warmly welcomed by the course instructor Susanne. The course room was big enough and had all the materials you could want. There were also aprons in front of the room so that the clothes remained clean despite manual work. During a short introduction, we were able to learn the first steps with the clay and form a small, beautiful bowl. We were always well advised! Then it went straight to the nitty-gritty, we could either use templates or create a completely custom shape by hand. If we had any questions, we could always contact Susanne, she was always available with advice and assistance, but we also had the freedom to try out ourselves. We then glazed the finished clay and left it there to burn. During the course, we were able to learn a lot of basics about sound. In addition to the course price, there are minimal burning costs, which were not included in the price and are calculated individually depending on size and shape. However, the costs are only charged upon collection. We can highly recommend the course and can also imagine coming back again.:)

It was a wonderfully creative and relaxed evening with expert explanations and personal assistance. The material (clay) can be used immediately, apron and modelling tools are plentiful and time flew by. Unfortunately 🤣 That wasn't my last course! Corinna Reinke

A superlative weekend workshop 🌹 Thank you dear Susanne and thank you dear Angelika for sharing so many experiences with us. You've really enriched us with all your know-how. The range of materials “galore” was excellent and your inspiration through your own models and illustrative materials was just the thing for us. Thanks also to Ede, who is indispensable when using Raku. With his energy, he has made the workshop duo a perfect trio 🌹🌹🌹 We're taking great treasures home. And, we'll be back! We are my girlfriend Veronica and Heide Marie Syassen

We did the pottery class as part of a bachelorette party — and it was simply wonderful! The atmosphere was relaxed and creative, perfect for our group. Our course instructor was there with so much passion, patience and humor — it was immediately obvious that she loved her job. 💛 Even as beginners, we felt in great hands and each of us was able to take home something of our own in the end. There was a lot of laughing, designing, trying things out — the time flew by! We would recommend the course without hesitation — whether as a gift, a special event, or simply to get creative ourselves. Thank you for this great experience ☀️
