Before You Book Working with clay is wonderfully creative, but it can also be unpredictable during the drying and firing stages. Pieces can sometimes develop issues such as cracks, breakages, warping, or parts becoming detached. Occasionally, items may collapse as they dry or, very rarely, explode in the kiln if air pockets are present. These risks are a normal part of working with clay, and following the instructor’s guidance will greatly reduce the chances of problems occurring. Due of this, we can’t guarantee every piece will survive fully intact. If something does happen to your piece, we do our best to repair it, but are unable to offer compensation unless it's due to an error on our part.

Our scheduled workshops are mostly held at our Crafty Monkey Studio on Moore's Walk in St. Neots. Usually on Sunday mornings. Are your pottery lessons for beginners? Our classes are aimed at Beginners and would also suit people with prior experience. Are your clay workshops for adults? Adults mainly attend our pottery classes, but kids aged 8+ are welcome (under 10s need a participating adult). Do you hold pottery classes for kids? While age 8+ can book onto our pottery classes, we occasionally run children's pottery workshops like Clay Monsters, usually during the school holidays.

For groups of 6 or more people, we may be able to arrange an exclusive pottery workshop at a time that suits you. This is a popular option for: Crafty Hen Dos Birthday Parties Team Building & Work Socials Family & Friends Can you run classes other days? If there's 4 or more of you, we may be able to run a class and open it up for others to book onto.
