Introduction to pottery & ceramics in Aubagne (13)

Activity description :

1. 2 hours30 minutes
2. Up to 3 people
3. From 15 years old

Come discover the art of ceramics with Véronique, who will be your instructor for this 2.5-hour workshop. You’ll learn two different techniques: pinching and the potter’s wheel!

Activity Schedule (2.5 hours):

• Theoretical part: Véronique will explain how to work with clay.
• Hands-on session: With both hands in the clay, you’ll learn the traditional pinching technique to shape your first bowl using chamotte clay (with grains). This is the pinching technique, which is done without a potter’s wheel.
• You’ll also have the chance to try the wheel with smooth clay to shape your second bowl.
• Véronique will fire your two bowls; you’ll need to come back a few weeks later to pick them up in their finished form!

Whether for yourself or as a gift, who hasn’t dreamed of trying their hand at pottery and shaping a bowl with their own two hands? It’s an experience not to be missed if you’re visiting Aubagne.
