Make and Mend - Textile Workshop

Asun

Lovely class with Natti. We learnt a new and quick way of making patchwork. I also learnt to put a zip by machine and how to use a special Zip foot on the sewing machine . A very pleasant way of spending an evening.  The purse I made is beautiful. I will definitely recommend the course 

Joanna Niedzielska

I really enjoyed this session.
It was great! My instructor was very helpful and showed us all step by step how to make the purse.
I liked that I could learn the quilting technique during these session and I would like to use it in my future sewing projects.

Archana Hogarth

I had a wonderful evening at the new Art4Space Textile/ Make and Mend Studio . Our lovely Tutor, Natti showed us how to make a beautiful patchwork lined purse with a zip, which I absolutely love! We could choose our fabric combination from a selection of beautiful fabric cotton squares, and the Studio Is very well resourced so we had a sewing machine each.  The sewing machines had been serviced and were working beautifully. At the end, we sewed some beads as a decoration to our purse, from the amazing collection of textile resources in the studio. It was a very relaxing and creative experience because the studio is set in a lovely garden and Natti even gave us a glass of wine and chocolate cake! I would highly recommend

Abigail Frimpong 

I got to learn a new skill that I can use to mend my children's clothes. 

Kelli Powling 

The environment is welcoming and inspiring, the refreshments are generous and varied, and the class is just the right balance of guidance and independence (as with the Mosaic class I took this spring). 

Morgane encouraged us to take risks, advised using her textile expertise, assisted us as needed, and created a relaxed, friendly social atmosphere.

Art4Space is nourishing.

Beverly  Folan 

Really enjoyed the make and mend class. I took along a load of clothes that needed repairing. The lovely tutor gave me lots of ideas and guidance on the best way to repair my clothes. I haven't hand sewn or used a machine for yrs and the tutor helped me to repair everything I had brought in and I now feel confident to hand sewn and use a machine. The textiles studio is lovely and chilled, and there were drinks, snacks and cakes provided. It was a lovely evening and I would definitely recommend this class to anyone interested in textiles etc. The tutor is very knowledgeable and patient around a variety of techniques.

Marcina  arnold

This place is a haven, it has really enabled me to grow artistically and see how my music career and visual arts can inform one another and evolve! So pleased I have been able to take courses here and the bonus of it being child friendly perfect for a creative parent, a must the modern times we live in!

Daphne De Souza

Great teacher, environment and materials. Thank you

Samarys Ramdhun

Yesterday share a wonderful and incredible experience with helping  and taught me to learn more about the different materials and advise I used, recycling materials, to decoration and create a design own and decorative ,I learned more on this day and enjoyed the course conducted by the tutor Natti very beautiful person, thanks very much for understanding and patience I am grateful for the opportunity and experience very great I had at Studio Art4. 

Nigel Chapelle

It was my first time in the Make & Mend Studio.  It was an amulet workshop, and provided an opportunity to develop a very personal piece of textile.  The session was both brilliantly facilitated and  resourced.

I came along  because wanted to  improve my sewing skills and deepen my understanding of working with textiles.  Both objectives achieved, and a nice amulet to take home

Sophie Douglas

Relaxing doodle stitching evening with a glass of wine. Ellie, the tutor, showed us how to stitch a variety of stitches and came round all of us for a personal explanation and check to see how we were getting on. We sat in a happy room full of textiles and threads, buttons and needles. An absolute delight!

Misty Highmoor

I loved this class. A great room. People in the group were all made to feel welcome and Ellie supported me with learning different stitches. I fully recommend this class - This one was free but I would pay for it in future. Well worth it. 

This workshop was well structured, relaxed, and informative.  Several different stitching techniques what demonstrated with plenty of time for practice and time for creative expression.  The studio was warm relaxed and very well resource..

A lovely evening making a purse out of a tie. I was curious to explore first hand what I could make of it and it was surprisingly easy and fun. Fran is an awesome tutor, patient and gentle with a great sense of humour.  The glass of wine was a lovely addition. 

Laura Graham

Excellent workshop making flowers from scrap fabrics.  A seemingly complex process was simply explained and with very little sewing I made two beautiful flowers that I will wear in the future. A very enjoyable and satisfying experience.

My daughter and I booked to do the Japanese Kanzashi fabric flower Workshop and it was amazing.  It was a wonderful mother and daughter half term activity for me! The choice of materials is incredible.  There were lots of colourful fabrics to choose from and also amazing buttons and beads to embellish our fabric flowers with.  The Tutor Ellie and her assistant were very supportive and patiently showed us how to make the fabric flowers.   They were attentive to each person if we got stuck .  We were also given a glass of wine and other drinks.  They had relaxing music on and so it was a very calm and relaxing experience. The flowers look so complex when they are finished, but I was surprised how easy they were to make. I would thoroughly recommend this textile workshop! 

This workshop was brilliantly resourced with a fantastic. range of varied materials.  The teaching and facilitation were also of very high-quality..  the session was well timed with most of us being able to completely finish a small tapestry.  The quality of the work produced was very high..

This was my first ever experience of weaving and I learnt the basic skill set.  I’d recommend it to anybody interested in learning about tapestry.

Rosa  Rosario 

I’m very happy to be involved in this project 

Rosa Rosario 

I have a great time at class yesterday 🤩
Thank you Rosa 

I attended the clothes repair workshop with Morgane in the evening and I was delighted to fix the sleeves on a top that I love but couldn’t wear until fixed. Morgane talked to me about the best approach with the particular fabric, showed me how to work the sewing machine or proceed by hand( which I did in the end as I preferred the control I had over the  fabric that way) 
It was a fun, educational and relaxed evening in one of my favourite places on Earth. Art 4 Space, more importantly the staff are so fantastic, every single one of them, that I look forward to going and being creative and sharing. An absolute sanity saver!

Jan Cardenas

It was a quite cozy and enjoyable workshop, where the lady leading the session was very attentive and helpful. (Sorry! Forgot her name). 
Some useful techniques were shown to us and, when the finishing time was being reached, there was a strong feeling as if no one wanted to leave yet. 
We all reluctantly left, as also getting late. 
It was great to discover other different and interesting women that live in the same neighbourhood I live. 
I sensed a happy feeling of accomplishment. amongst us all. .  
I hope there were many other workshops. 

Loved this workshop, brilliantly resourced and facilitated!

It was a lovely and useful workshop. Several local women were there and very chatty. The lady who was leading the session was incredibly helpful. Very kind and facilitating threads, needles, beads, all the materials and going around checking everyone’s progress, 
Also offered (and prepared!) us a tea or coffee. And tiding herself afterwards. 
There should be more of these kind of events, as transmit loads of good vive and anergy, while learning new stuff and making us connect with others of the community that otherwise we would not ever meet. Hopefully there will be more. 

I did the Festive Felting class with Fran and it was so lovely! Fran was so kind and patient and explained to us how to make Christmas felting decorations to hang on our Christmas trees. Once she had explained it, it was really easy and so effective. We had to shape the wool or felt with a felting needle using a mould, onto a hard sponge.  I made a gingerbread man and a pale-blue snowflake, and I also had time to make a snowman with a blue hat.  Fran showed us how to sew embroidery detail onto our felting and how to create the string on top to hang it.  There was a gorgeous selection of embroidery threads to choose colours from! So I gave my gingerbread man green buttons and a black bow tie as well as cream, coloured eyes and a smile. I also sewed on cris-cross stars onto my snowflake. Fran then produced lots of pots of beads and we could sew beads onto our felting too.  Fran helped me with threading the needle with the embroidery thread. We had Christmas music the whole afternoon and Fran also made us cups of tea. It was a wonderful experience as the other participants were so nice and so I had a good chat as we all made our felting Christmas decorations together.   I would highly recommend! It is a lot easier than you would think! 😁

Such wonderful tutors and environment to learn craft techniques and meet people .Thank you Art4Space. I thoroughly enjoyed the classes.

Nadia Antonio

The workshop was amazing. My daughter and I loved it. We didn't know how to knit but the teacher had a lot of patience with us and showed us what to do step by step. It was great to see my daughter engaged in this activity, she quickly learned how to knit. Because it was our first time we couldn't finish and my daughter got a bit frustrated but the team offered all the materials needed so she could finish it at home. It was a lovely experience, and a well spent time together. There were people from different backgrounds and ages which is always lovely to see in the same space. The atmosphere was relaxed, the space inspiring and the sense of community was lovely. Thank you! 

Regina Podsiadly

The session was amazing! I've learnt so much in just 2 hours! The class was very well organised, all equipment available, instructions given step by step- easy to understand and follow. Very welcoming staff and friendly atmosphere! I felt at ease very quickly even though I haven't known anybody there. I recommend it whole-heartedly! 

Joann Genduso

A lovely class. It’s amazing how we finished our piece in a short class.  The teachers instruction were so clear & easy to follow. Even if you have never sewn  you will be able to make this adorable little purse. A very pleasant experience.

Stirling  Rodger

My second visit to Art4Space, having previously attended the beginners pottery session.  Textile workshop was as enjoyable as Pottery - all made possible by the teacher Natti.
 Natti really is a superb teacher.  Here natural energy and enthusiasm shines out of her.  The atmosphere being very relaxed and humorous but you are left in no doubt that you are here to learn and work.
Everything explained step by step and she constantly checks to make sure you on the right lines. Lovely work space, light clean and welcoming.    Not to mention the welcoming glass of red!  Art4Space will definitely be seeing more of me. 

Jane Armitage

I really enjoyed the Make and Mend workshop with Natalie.  She was fantastic,  very welcoming and clear on all of her instructions. All of the resources were great.
My only observation was,  I had (erroneously) presumed that it would be a workshop about how to repair garments.  So many of us are now trying to live more sustainably. 
However, I thoroughly enjoyed what we did.  Five stars!

We loved our class with Natty, who went above and beyond (including finishing up the class later than planned!) She was a great teacher who was patient and responsive to our many queries. We also really liked what we made in the class.
One small point; I had emailed in advance to see about any materials needed, as I had the impression from the title that it was a mending workshop, rather than creating something new. The email response clarified that it wasn't a mending workshop, so I knew what to expect, but I do think the description at point of booking could be a little clearer. Still had a really wonderful time though, and will definitely be back :)

Our focus will be textiles and sustainable practices, repair, and revive.

Christmas mosaic gifts and decorations - Half Day Saturday session

Maria Chirambo

Fantastic session. Lovely environment. Session leaders were lovely and so welcoming. I will certainly be doing more of these workshops. 

Weekend Workshops

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Great tutors. Learned something I had never done before and took home something I was proud of. When I walked into the studio I was like wow such a great vibe. Will book again and maybe gift one of these workshops to a friend. 

Louise Hood

What a wonderful experience! I would highly recommend taking a class at Art 4 Space if you need some calm creative time in an environment with incredibly welcoming gentle people. Plus, you get take take home your creations to treasure (or chuckle at) for evermore! 

Annabelle Perrot

I had a very pleasant evening at Art4Space where I attended a Kintsugi class led by 2 lovely woman.  Very nice group of people, great atmosphere. I had fun trying to piece together a piece of pottery, while sipping a glass of wine and eating tea cakes. I’ll definitely recommend Art4Space classes and will try their mosaic classes next. 


Very relaxing session. Gemma the tutor was great at making us feel relaxed and  very welcome. I got to make a rainbow to take home. The studio was a very clean and spacious space. There were also refreshments for us as well. I will certainly be looking out for another workshop to book. 

Louise Serafini 

Great tutor, extremely helpful. Made me feel at ease from the start. 

Javier A  Escobar G

Amazing space for creativity and to have a relaxed time.

Xander Alari-Williams

Alice Trouncer

I did the cloud mosaic class. The teaching was brilliant, the studio spacious and attractive, the refreshments generous (beer, hot drinks, soft drinks,  biccies, fruit), and the mosaic materials incredibly plentiful. The class was also brilliant value. I’m so pleased with what I made and am planning to go back for other workshops. Highly recommended

Dawn Bonar

Gemma was knowledgeable and helpful. She explained everything well and made sure we were all happy with the process of mosaicing our bird box. 

The class was good value for money in a nice, large, clean space.

Ellis Angel

Great space, super helpful tutor. Creativity and alcohol,  what more can you ask for ;)

Owen Howard

The best bit was all of it! Can we go again?

Suzanne HOWARD

I loved making the mosaic and the snacks. The teacher was really kind and helped me.

I really enjoyed the session the tutor was so welcoming and friendly. The studio was full of amazing things, clean and we were offers an amazing array of snacks and drinks. I will certainly be booking in for another time.

Nigal Chapelle

Such a wonderful and well stocked studio.  The facilitation was very skilled.  Making a memorial mosaic was a really satisfying process.

Lisa Josephl

Had a wonderful time learnt a lot about Kintsugi 
Cannot recommend enough 

This class was very well taught, with support, fun and lots of room for creativity. We had the choice of three types of bisqueware (mugs, bowls and side plates), and could choose two pieces to paint using a wide range of ready-mixed glazes, which will be fired and posted to us. Remember to paint on clear glaze at the end if you want the pieces to be food-safe! My mum and I both made pieces we're really happy with. The venue is lovely - spacious, well equipped and in a pretty courtyard. Very generous refreshments are provided, including a beer or glass of wine if you like. I will definitely be returning!

Kate  Frankish

Brilliant workshop! My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed it, even though he was cynical beforehand.  John was an excellent teacher; instructive and insightful but not over-bearing or interfering. The range of materials and tools was excellent and inspiring.  This workshop really went beyond our expectations.  We're only gutted we live so far away otherwise we'd definitely be signing up for a regular class.  Thank you so much! 

Nimrah  Ahmed 

I absolutely loved the class, it was so in depth and detailed, the snacks were excellent, Kim was absolutely the nicest and kindest and she was so helpful with everything, she was explaining everything so thoroughly and I loved her techniques. Hats off to her efforts and dedication towards the event, really looked like she went out of her way. There were also very lovely exotic tea flavours I’ve not seen in the market before as well as delicious hot scones with yummy cream and one of the best jams, the best part was the jams were local. Thankyou Kim for such a lovely experience. She was genuinely the heart of the event❤️

I went to an incredible watercolour painting class at Art4space. We were given Prosecco to sip while painting!  And at teatime, we were given warm scones with Devon clotted cream and locally made raspberry and rhubarb jam with exotic wholesome herbal teas! 
The Art tutor, Kim, was very knowledgeable and supportive with getting us all started on a watercolour painting of a meadow. She carefully demonstrated how to start, by painting clouds. Then she showed us how to paint a meadow.. she explained everything very clearly and went round the table helping everyone. The whole class was very relaxing and mindful, especially with gentle music playing in the background.  We all finished with different watercolour paintings in our own style. I’m thrilled with mine and learnt some amazing watercolour techniques from the Tutor. The studio itself has lots of space and a beautiful garden, which we could use to sit or paint outside if we wanted to. I would highly recommend !

In this workshop we have different themes and art forms, next one is pottery painting. 

Can we add your email to our newsletter database? We send a monthly newsletter

Using the combined skills you can then create up to 2 pieces, which will then be bisque-fired, dipped in our beautiful stoneware glazes, and fired again. Most of our glaze choices are dinnerware safe. The results are stunning! You receive your posted creations within 4-6 weeks, imagine the magical moment when you open your box to reveal the results!

The vessels/pots can be for functional ware or try small sculptural work. You are welcome to come with your own ideas during the mindful 2.5 hours of making with the full support of an experienced ceramic tutor to help you realise your creative design ideas. No experience is necessary as the session is beginner-friendly as well for the more advanced participants.

Pinch a Pot

Piotr Karpinski

I found Art4Space as a very friendly, welcoming and safe environment. I have never worked with clay before - it was new and a very fun experience for me. Nice,friendly and relaxing atmosphere in the room made it easy for me to chat to other participants and make new colleagues - loved that. It was a great opportunity to do something creative. John, the teacher of our pinch pot making classes was very kind, helpful and knowledgeable. Looking forward to visit Art4Space again. 

Beverly Folan

Have done this class with John twice now and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a lovely studio with great chilled music, drinks, including a glass of wine if you want one! John is a lovely and very patient teacher who will guide you if you are a beginner or have worked with clay before. He is very knowledgeable with clay and glazes etc. It's really relaxing and I highly recommend this for a night out with friends or coming alone to meet new people and being creative. I will be back!

Chris Hunt

This was a fantastic and thoroughly enjoyable workshop. I highly recommend this hand building class. I had lots of fun and learned a lot in the process. The studio was welcoming and had great facilities. The tutor was warm, friendly, very welcoming and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain options, techniques etc throughout the workshop. There was an abundance of materials. I was very proud of what I achieved. I will definitely return very soon. 


Charlene  Skyers

Chloe Cassoni

Was a lovely evening. Left feeling better than I came in. Thank you so much :)

Louise Serafini

Great tutor, great atmosphere and the chance to make your very own masterpiece 😊

Rob Hammaren

Very relaxing, fun, creative evening with excellent facilitation as always. Great to learn a new skill. Highly recommend.

Kat Stone

My friends and I really enjoyed the workshop with John. 
He gave great guidance to three techniques, enjoyed a glass of wine with the making, and got stuck in with the  clay pieces. Looking forward to receiving my finished pieces! 
Will definitely come back for another clay making session! 

Christina Holmbek

I had the best time! The workshop leader was lovely, so the whole class was calming and fun. Despite the relaxed atmosphere, I actually managed to make three whole pieces! Just got them in the mail, and I love them They are by no means perfect, but I'm still proud of them.

Alex Hinson

What a fantastic evening! I learned new skills, made new friends, and cannot wait to receive my creations in the mail. 100% recommend!!! 

Arianna Dalla Costa

Great experience! The teacher was very nice and knowledgeable, and her explanation of the various techniques we explored was clear and instructive. Very nice atmosphere. I would only suggest that the description on the website should be changed: it promised nibbles which were not there! 

Henry Lambert

The workshop was really enjoyable, very relaxed and a perfect way to unwind creatively. 

My second class with Art4Space in hand clay. Truly enjoyed Natti as our tutor. 
I can't wait to receive my three finished pieces! 
As it was my second time, it was great that I had already tried all the three techniques last time and could focus this time on the techniques I enjoyed the most. 

Jill Thursby

I had such a great time at this session. The instructor, Natti, was very knowledgeable and friendly, and answered all of my questions. She quickly showed us the 3 styles of hand building pottery, allowing the group time to take our time with the styles we were most interested in. The venue and vibe was fantastic, including the playlist. I’ve just got my items back and although I’m not going to quit my day job, I’m impressed at what I was able to accomplish in a short time. Would highly recommend and hope to be back! 

George  Webb

Fantastic time learning the three basic techniques for clay sculpting. Best thing I've done in ages. 

claire guellier

Very fun ! Plenty of time to practice and we had all the clay we wanted to create :)

Sibylle Metge-Toppin

Lovely time making pottery! very instructive and relaxing experience. Really enjoyed it!

Kelly Bryden

My friend gifted me with class as a birthday present and we had a FANTASTIC time. It was so fun to spend time together doing something creative. Our thoughtful instructor John, taught us three techniques for working with clay. At the end of the class we made three pots and got to pick our glazes. The pots will then be mailed to our addresses in four weeks. Highly recommend this class and the value you get out of it!

Lucy O'Grady

This was my first ever pottery class and it was awesome. The tutor was really friendly, clear and knowledgeable and the atmosphere was really relaxed. For two and a half hours I was absorbed in making with clay and completely forgot about the day job - just what I needed. Thank you Art4Space, can't wait to return!

Alison Ekang

Really really enjoyed the session. The techniques were well explained, and loved trying to create three items. My pieces were not perfect!!! But I fully enjoyed slowing down and trying to create something for myself. Found it very mindful, lovely calm space to be in. Really appreciated the tea and snacks.

Matt Kidd

John led our session as was really friendly and helpful. Highly recommend to anyone who need a few ideas on activities. Looking forward to seeing the final product when posted to us in a few weeks 

Daniel Ellicott

We loved the experience, it is perfect for any size group. John is extremely knowledgeable and patient. You are shown the different techniques with a live demo and then get the opportunity to practice yourself. The best thing is that you can take any direction with your design and if you don't like it then you can easily start again.

Fabulous handbuilding clay class. The tutor John is so patient and knowledgeable. I have learnt how to do pinch pots, slab building and cooling. Lovely, relaxing space, and great music! Would definitely recommend this to friends for a fun night out and/or an evening doing ceramics.

Merrin Sharples-Moore

My friend and I had the loveliest evening for her birthday, John offered the perfect balance of direction and creative freedom when explaining each technique. Such a lovely space and company - can't wait to see my glazed & fired pieces in a few weeks! 

Ines Moya Sanchez

What a fabulous experience! Honestly, way above my expectations. The place is beautiful, the instructor was so cool, knowledgeable, kind ! We had so much fun  and learned a lot! We had drinks, nibbles, great choice of colours at the end and THEY INCLUDE THE DELIVERY! SERIOUSLY FANTASTIC!  Would love to go again :) and will recommend to all my friends 

I really love this ceramics handbuilding class and try to go as often as possible. I've learnt so much about the different processes of handbuilding with clay. The tutors provide a lovely, relaxing and welcoming space for you to explore your creative abilities. They work with you at your pace and encourage you to create something amazing from a lump of clay. Its quite incredible when you see the finished pieces which have been fired and glazed. I would recommend this class to absolute beginner's and also to people like myself who have been working with clay for a while now. It's a great night out in a chilled, relaxing studio space.

 Jozsef  Gecsei

Natalie & John turned lumps of clay into masterpieces (almost)!  This pottery class was fantastic - calming, creative, and a total blast. Huge thanks to John and Natalie's amazing instruction. Walked in a newbie, and walked out with a wonky (but loved!) bowl and a newfound appreciation for the craft.
Joey & Jason 

Lily Middleton

I did the pinch, coil and slab building workshop and absolutely loved it. We were taught all techniques at the start and given time to try each out, which was really fun. Then we were given a really nice amount of time to decide what to make, and give it a go. Very hands on help when required. Really nice group. Such a wonderful evening! I’ll be returning to try something else soon!

Alyssa Chafee

This pottery making workshop was fun, informative and friendly. Thank you!

Laura Bertoldi

Amazing class for an amazing cause! Natti was a great teacher, guiding us with great advice whilst giving us space to try our own things!

Grant Beresford

This was a really great evening. Relaxed, enjoyable and learning new things.  Never done pottery before and subject to the kiln gods will hopefully have a new sun yellow pen holder for my desk - made using slab building and coiling - in about 4 weeks time. My wife and I both had a great time.  

Karen  Smith

Great evening very enjoyable - certainly recommend. Gives you the basics on how to make a selection of pots. Also very pleased with my end results.

Francesca Santoro

It was the best creative activity for a summer evening with friends! I recommend it to everyone. Daisy is the kindest and most helpful instructor and she was generous with the wine and helped create a fun and relaxed environment to create our pieces. 

Lisa Brugaliere

Lovely experience! Enjoyed the pottery class very much 

Fahana Ali

We were gifted a pottery session at Art4Space and it was one of the best activities we have done together. We were greeted very warmly and offered free drinks.  It’s great for all ages and anyone, I had no idea how to do pottery but we were taught three techniques by Daisy and then given even more clay to make our own pieces. It was a really enjoyable and creative experience and the staff were very welcoming and generous which made it all the more fun. A very community driven project 

Sarah Hager

Great Birthday Experiance present bought for myself and my Husband. An opportunity to gave some quality fun time.  The class was easy to follow laid back and relaxed.  We definitely valve for money in every respect. 

Tolulope Oke

I took my friend to the class for her birthday and we had the best time. The class was very well paced and we got to make and 'take home' 3 pieces which is incredibly good value! The pieces will be sent to us!

Louise Ogle

Beautiful venue, amazing facilities, knowledgeable and friendly trainer, great value - just perfect. 

Stacey McConaky

Such a fun experience!! Complete beginner and was guided through the day and really happy with my finished creations. 
Staff member leading the session was a total pro and so helpful! 

Lucy Robinson

Lovely workshop, with just the right amount of teaching and support. A wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Thank you :)

Caroline Willis

A lovely evening, relaxing atmosphere. Good tuition allowing your own imagination to be inspired.

Samantha Conway

We had a great time. Daisy was really welcoming and informative. Looking forward to received my attempts 

Eve Riddle

Wonderful class, very fun, the workshop leader was super engaging, and made everyone feel at ease and looked after, would definitely come again! 

Ella Thompson

great first experience, lovely teacher, friendly environment, very fun easy going and enjoyable !

Becca Hamilton

John was great - very friendly and helpful. The course was laid-back and informative, and very well-priced compared to others I've seen.

Josh Parker

We had a wonderful evening with John who was very welcoming and created a relaxed and fun environment allowing us to create whatever we wanted using these techniques. Would recommend to a friend! 

Sara Proietti

Me and my partner had so much fun :) It was just like John said, a place where we could disconnect from the mental and digital race, where we could be present and creative, and I truly felt that! I struggle with anxiety and a part of me was worried that I would be too intimidated by everyone elses pieces, but it was just such a lovely environment that I not once looked at anyone elses piece and felt like I had to compare mine to theirs, I felt relaxed, free to think and create, and I felt connected to my younger self! So thank you very much Art4Space and John for a wonderful experience <3

A really nice way to spend an afternoon !! 
After walking through the city to a beautiful space we were met with our teacher for the afternoon Daisy. 
What a lovely, friendly and approachable young lady who guided us through the basics of making thumb pots, coil pots, and sharing techniques to making flat sheets of clay and how to join these successfully, and various other tips. 
This was held in a calm and relaxing atmosphere, where everyone felt comfortable to give it a go ! 
Daisy calmly assisted and taught a varied group of students with different degrees of talent and shared and demonstrated her knowledge throughout the day.
  An absolute credit to Art4space.
 I thoroughly recommend this course to take the first steps into pottery or to brush up on those key skills and to generally have a very wholesome time !!


Just love these classes, so much so I’ve bought 10 of them.  The facilitators are all superb and the atmosphere always so warm and relaxed.

Join us for a fun, creative, and relaxing evening to explore 3 hand-building techniques pinching, coiling, and slab-building.
