Join us on Sunday 14th September, 10am to 2pm, for a special 4 hour workshop with Local potter Ben Ruble of Wild Nature Clay.

Push your throwing skills to the next level

Ben is known for his large-scale wheel thrown forms and in this workshop he will share his approach to working with larger amounts of clay, from centring and pulling taller walls to managing weight, structure, and form.

This workshop is designed for potters who have completed a beginner course or have prior wheel-throwing experience and are ready to push their skills to the next level and confidently move into increasing the size of their wheel thrown forms.
