Class Information...

·       Maximum of 7 students per class.

·       7 wheels available so no queuing for wheels and         students can spend all night on the wheel if             they want.

·       Adult classes are 2 hours but we encourage                 students to stay on after the class to practice             on the wheel or to work on at something they             are making by hand.

·       Pay half of the course up front so if you miss a         class you only lose half of the class cost.


Great if you are looking for things to do in Galway City!

What'll I be making?

        Wheel Work

·       For the adult classes we will run a program to             give an introduction and then develop your skills         on the wheel starting the classes with                         demonstrations and then one-on-one tuition             from highly skilled and experienced teachers.

·       During the course we will work through the                 making of bowls, candle-holders, jugs, mugs etc.

·       The classes will start off for beginners but can             cater for students at all levels as everyone will             work at their own pace

        Hand Building

·       During the 8-week program, various hand                     building and surface decoration techniques will         be covered, such as –

        o   Coil building

        o   Slab work

        o   Pinch Pots

        o   Moulds

        o   Slip Techniques

·       This is not a strict program and you are free to         spend the whole time on one or some preferred         areas

Class times

Adult evening Classes :  

Tuesday Evening     8pm – 10pm             

Thursday Evening 8pm - 10pm

(The evening classes finish at 10pm but students are welcome to work on after the class)

Class cost

·       Adults Classes are 18 euro per class and are                 booked for an 8-week course. Adults pay 80 euro         up front and then bring 8 euro per week. This             ensures that a place is kept for you in the class,         but that you do not lose the whole cost of the         class should they miss one.

·       All of materials and costs are included in these         prices and there is no limit on what a student             can make. With our help you can make whatever         you want!
