Workshops at Goonzoyle Pottery
North Cliffs of Cornwall
Pottery classes at Goonzoyle are some of the smallest potter’s wheel and hand-building classes in Cornwall, with a maximum workshop size of 3 students. However larger groups can be accommodated for special functions. Students are taught individually, at their own speed, what they wish to learn.
No experience is necessary. The studio sessions can be used by more experienced students who may or may not have a studio of their own.
The workshop sessions are attended on a drop-in basis – organising workshops which work within your schedule; paying as you go.
Each workshop costs £25
