REFRESH: Clay Play: A Gentle Introduction to Handbuilding

This project is a series of playful clay workshops designed for complete beginners. The sessions introduce foundational clay techniques, focusing on how to build simple forms with strength and structure, while keeping the process relaxed and enjoyable!

Are you curious about making art and working with your hands? With no previous experience required, this Refresh block puts an emphasis on exploration, confidence, and creativity rather than finished outcomes. Clay is used as a mindful, tactile material that encourages focus, presence, and self-expression.

Each session will include a short demonstrations of basic structural techniques, followed by guided making time where you will create a range of small pieces such as mugs, plates, pots, animals, and other simple forms. Support is offered throughout from Jaquie and the Articulate team.

As always, Refresh will provide a meal and runs 5-8pm.
