Punch & Clay (16+)
Booking Details
The festive season is just around the corner, and what better way to enjoy it than with a little clay, a cup of hot punch and some time with friends? Grab your friends, take a break from the pre-Christmas rush and enjoy a creative afternoon or evening filled with pottery, hot punch and good conversations.
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to use the hand-building technique to create your own ceramic piece, such as a mug, bowl or small vase. Once you’ve shaped your piece, you can make it truly yours with colourful clay, marbled effects and 3D details. You can also use coloured underglazes to add a few extra touches. Perhaps you’ll make a new favourite mug for cosy winter days, a little vase for your Christmas table or a handmade gift for someone special. It’s entirely up to you!
To make the experience even cosier, we’ll serve hot, alcoholic Christmas punch, with several glasses included. Prefer something without alcohol? Just let us know and we’ll be happy to prepare a non-alcoholic version for you.
After the workshop, we’ll professionally fire and glaze your piece with a transparent glaze. It will then be food-safe, dishwasher-safe, microwave-safe and ready to find its place in your home.

Je nach Dicke deiner Kreation kann es 5 - 8 Tage dauern, bis sie in den Brennofen können. Danach werden sie bei 960 Grad im Brennofen gebrannt. Das Erreichen dieser Temperatur sowie das langsame Abkühlen dauert bis zu 28 Stunden. Nachdem der erste Brand dann abgeschlossen ist, werden die Werke mit unseren Hochtemperaturglasuren am zweiten Termin deines Kurses von dir glasiert und danach kommen sie erneut in den Brennofen, um sie dieses Mal bei 1220 Grad zu brennen. Nach weiteren 36 Stunden ist dein Stück dann fertig und kann aus dem Ofen hinaus. Nun ist es langlebig und voll funktionsfähig, das bedeutet, du kannst es jetzt auch in die Mikrowelle sowie in den Geschirrspüler stellen.
Insgesamt sind die Keramikstücke 3 Wochen nach dem letzten Kurstag zur Abholung im jeweiligen Studio bereit. Dort sind sie dann nach Nachnamen in unseren Regalen einsortiert. Komm gerne während unserer Öffnungszeiten vorbei und hol sie ab.
In the case of a rescheduling or cancellation, you will find the corresponding instructions under the first question “How can I reschedule my course?”
Important: Rescheduling requests via email, phone or in person cannot be accepted and are therefore invalid.
On the one hand, there is wheel throwing, where pieces are created on the electric pottery wheel. The resulting objects are characteristically round, symmetrical and thin. On the other hand, there is modeling and shaping clay by hand at the worktable. This includes coiling, pinch technique and slab technique. Here you are not bound to the round base shape created by the wheel and can freely express your creativity.
However, shorter nails – and for pottery wheel courses also a hair tie for longer hair as well as clothes that may get a little dirty – are an advantage. If despite the aprons some clay or glaze gets onto your clothing, don’t worry, both can be easily washed out.
We keep already glazed course pieces in our pickup shelves for 3 months. After that, due to space limitations, they are sorted into monthly boxes where we can no longer guarantee completeness or condition. Every year before Christmas, we donate all remaining pieces that have been with us for more than one year to “Aktion Leben” to bring joy to someone else. :)
