We are thrilled to announce this 2-day pottery throwing course, taught by Andrew Plaistowe from the Great Pottery Throwdown.
This is an intermediate 2-day lidded cups course running from 10am - 4pm each day. The course is designed for students who have some experience with the stages of throwing a pot.
Following Andrew’s recent appearance on series 9 of ‘The Great Pottery Throwdown’ he has launched a new collection of wheel-thrown mugs, bowls, and lidded coffee keep cups featuring distinctive decorative motifs, including green landscapes, blue landscapes, and delft-style geometric patterns. Andrew has taken inspiration from the South Downs landscape and he will be guiding students through the process of making his wonderful lidded cups.
On day 1, students will focus on throwing the bodies of 3 cups in the morning and then the lids for these in the afternoon. On day 2, students will be turning their work and refining each piece, looking at the fit between cup and lid, and having the opportunity to decorate their pieces.
There will be a maximum of 8-10 students, and two tutors (Andrew and a teaching assistant), on each course to allow each student to be given individual attention.
Students are required to bring their own lunch. Refreshments will be provided each day.
Please find the 2027 dates below:
Saturday 24th & Sunday 25th April 2027
Saturday 19th & Sunday 20th June 2027
The cost includes firing and glazing of all work produced.

Cost: £275 per person.
