Kurinuki Wrapped Ceramic Pot Workshop | Friday 23rd October

Discover the wonderfully tactile world of Kurinuki, an ancient Japanese technique

About this experience

Discover the wonderfully tactile world of Kurinuki, an ancient Japanese technique that celebrates the natural character of clay. Learn how to stretch and shape clay, while exploring a range of expressive mark-making techniques to create rich, dramatic textures on a clay slab.

You’ll then transform your textured slab into a unique wrapped vessel, embracing the folds, marks and movement of the clay. A hands-on workshop for anyone who loves texture, experimentation and creating something truly individual.

Please note: This workshop requires a minimum of 6 participants to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, you will be notified well in advance and offered a full refund or a transfer to a future date.
