We run regular group classes with weekly attendance and also offer one-time private individual classes, private group sessions, creative workshops, masterclasses, private and corporate events, team building activities, birthday activities etc.
*Participation in regular classes requires registration in a group and weekly attendance.
*One-time private sessions are booked in advance and are subject to availability.
Under the guidance and supervision of professional ceramicist Ewelina Birut-Hadjimanolis (BA + MA Ceramic Art & Design at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw) and Manolis Hadjimanolis (BA Fine Art, MA Visual Culture / Art history / Art theory), the participants are introduced and gradually trained in practical and applied methods of traditional as well as contemporary craftsmanship.
Our classes and workshops are technically and historically informed and are suitable for both beginners and advanced.
Techniques: pinching / slab building / coil building / potter’s wheel / glazing / paint glazing / sgraffito / decoration with engobes and oxides
We work with well-structured and demonstrative teaching methods, following the guidelines of carefully designed lesson plans, while at the same time focusing on a personal approach towards each participant. We assist, support and encourage participants, both in the technical as well as the aesthetic aspects, to develop the understanding, skills, confidence and ability to create their own homeware such as plates, cups, bowls, teapots etc, as well as any other type of decorative or artistic objects.

The need for engaging with handcrafts seems to be more and more in demand in our times, as a positive reaction against industrilized products, consumerism and sedentary lifestyle. Through the course of this workshop, we focus on the awakening of the creative impulse and at the same time the development of skills, to achieve a creative and positive state of mind within a calm and homely environment.
