The Experience You will watch a demonstration of how to create and decorate different types of platters and dishes, using soft slabs of clay. Then you will have two hours to create your own work. Even if you have never tried this before, we are sure you’ll leave with work to be proud of. You will be offered as much or as little help as you want.
