About this outing
Pottering Around welcomes all ages to paint pottery at 52 Middlewood Road. Choose a piece, paint it and leave it for glazing and firing, normally taking seven days and sometimes around ten in busy periods. Pieces cost about £10–£50, with no extra studio or painting fee. Tables are booked for one hour and forty-five minutes; returning another day to finish costs £4 and pottery is retained for a month. Book ahead at weekends and during school holidays. Normal opening is Tuesday to Saturday 10am–4pm, closed Sunday and Monday. Adult-only evening events are separate from ordinary family painting.
