Hand Building Workshop

Take a break, slow down, and spend a day in the Barossa creating with your hands.

Our hand building workshops are playful, grounding, and designed for anyone who wants to make something beautiful while enjoying good company. Perfect for a self-care day with your girlfriends, a creative date with your partner, or a wholesome family activity. You will learn the fundamentals of hand building techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab work, then shape them into pieces that reflect your own style.

Workshops run for two hours and are suitable for all ages and skill levels. Everything is included: clay (enough to make a large mug or equivalent), tools, final clear glazing, and firing, so you can simply show up and create. You are also welcome to bring along a sweet treat and whatever you would like to drink to enjoy while you work.

You will leave with muddy hands, a clear mind, plenty of laughs, and pieces that are uniquely yours, memories baked in clay.

 Your pieces will take up to or over 12 weeks to be fired, they can then be collected from my Adelaide studio or a Barossa location that will be provided to you when your pieces are ready to collect. We also have a pottery postage option on the website if you cannot pick up, although we recommend pick up due to the fragile nature of your piece. 
 

Please note that all bookings are final. As a small studio we cannot offer cancellations or refunds, so we encourage you to book carefully and look forward to your time with us.

*Clay disclosure: Clay is a fragile material and while every care is taken with your items, not every piece makes it through the entire process. By making a booking with Goldie, you accept this inherent risk and understand that we are not able to remake or refund your workshop if your piece unfortunately doesn’t make it back to you.
