OUR MUCKY MONTHLY EVENT
Our Pots and Pints sessions make clay fun and accessible in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. No experience needed—just come, create, and enjoy games, surprises, and a free drink! You’ll get step-by-step guidance, and at the end, you can have your pieces professionally fired and glazed for a small fee. Bring your friends, family, or come solo—everyone’s welcome, and you’ll leave with new muddy pals!
Pots and Pints is ran with my joint business 'The Kilnhouse Nottingham', which I run with my best friend of 16+ years, who is also an amazing ceramicist.
