About us
Welcome to The Pottery Collective, a creative haven located in the heart of Leicester. Our mission is to make pottery accessible to everyone, whether you’re a beginner looking to try something new or a seasoned potter eager to refine your skills. With expert guidance, a welcoming environment, and high-quality facilities, we are here to nurture your creativity and help you craft something unique.
At The Pottery Collective, pottery is more than a craft—it’s an experience. We believe in the joy of working with your hands, the satisfaction of creating something beautiful, and the calming nature of working with clay. Join us and explore the art of ceramics, where every piece tells a story.
What to Expect
When you join us for a lesson or session, you’ll find a fully equipped studio with professional-grade wheels, kilns, and all the tools you need to bring your ideas to life. Each session lasts 2-3 hours, giving you ample time to get hands-on with clay and work at your own pace. All materials are provided, including a wide range of glazes to choose from for decorating your pieces.
After creating your pottery, it will be carefully dried and fired in our kilns, ready for collection in 2-3 weeks. Whether you’re learning hand building, wheel throwing, or experimenting with glazes, you can expect expert instruction in a relaxed, creative atmosphere.
