The Pottery Cave Bishton

weekly open pottery studio

Our weekly open studio sessions operate all day Thursday & Thursday evenings, Friday daytime.  These are student led but open to all.  We also have Wednesday evening sessions and open studio sessions on Saturdays.

The open studio sessions enable you to make your own individual pieces and let your creative flair go wild, so whether it’s a bird house, something nice for the garden, a house plaque or a vase, a pinch pot, decorative coil pieces, slab built items, the choice is yours and it can literally be anything you like (within a size restriction of the kiln space).

We also have a pottery wheel which can be booked in 1 hour blocks during the studio sessions.

There is a small charge for all finished pieces made during the open studio sessions to reflect the high cost of materials used in the process.
