Description

Step into a welcoming pottery studio in Koukaki, one of Athens’ most artistic neighborhoods, just minutes from the Acropolis. This hands-on hand-building workshop invites you to slow down, work with clay, and create something truly unique. In this beginner-friendly class, you’ll learn the three main hand-building techniques: • Pinch pot – forming small bowls using your fingers. • Slab building – rolling and shaping flat sheets of clay. • Coil building – stacking clay rolls to create vessels. Under the guidance of an experienced ceramic artist, you’ll shape, decorate, and prepare your own piece for firing. You can choose to make a bowl, mug, plate, or decorative object, and add carved designs or textures for a personal touch. Your ceramic will be bisque-fired and glazed, ready for pickup after a few days or shipped worldwide. Pick up your pieces from the workshop in 3 weeks In case of shipping, there is an extra charge depending on the country of shipment.
