Wheel Throwing Workshop - Camden Art Centre

Try your hand at the wheel in a one-off throwing workshop.

This workshop is now fully booked.

A one-off session to give you the chance to try your hand on the wheel.

The teacher will guide you through the basics of throwing on the wheel. You will have the chance to try to make a few different shapes (cups and bowls are the most common) and then choose which one/s you want to be fired. We will glaze the work for you, which you can then come and collect around 4 weeks later.

Please note that we charge an extra fee of £5 for each piece you wish to fire.

Turning Earth

Turning Earth pioneered the open-access ceramics membership model in the UK. Launching in 2013, they brought to London a model of community ceramics makerspace that had been developing in the US, and subsequently inspired many similar studios around the world. Since then, they have opened four studios: Hoxton, Leyton, Highgate, and In Production (a shared studio for more professional potters, next to their Leyton site). They run monthly memberships and weekly beginners and intermediate classes in each of their studios. In 2025 Turning Earth and Camden Art Centre initiated a partnership to run courses.
