Ceramic workshops

Your hands are all you need.

No experience is needed — just come as you are, get your hands in clay and enjoy making something of your own.

Before you pick

Choose Your Way

MAKE · FIRE · GLAZE

A two-session experience. During your first visit, you create your piece from scratch. We let it dry and give it its first firing. Then you come back to glaze it, adding colour and the finishing touches before its final firing.

MAKE & DECORATE

One creative session. Build your piece and add colour and decoration on the same day. We take care of the drying and firing, so your finished piece is ready sooner.

PICK & PAINT

Choose a ready-to-paint ceramic piece from our shelves — a cup, bowl, plate or whatever catches your eye. Make it your own with colour and decoration, then leave the firing to us. We’ll let you know when your finished piece is ready to collect.

Or pick any piece from the shelf

No clay skills. No experience. No pressure.

Visiting Cyprus for a short stay? If you’d love a creative experience but don’t have time to visit our studio twice, this workshop is for you.

Choose a ready-made ceramic piece and tell your own story through colour. Paint sunshine, sea waves, olive branches, lemons or little details that remind you of your time on the island. Or bring an idea of your own — we’ll help you turn it into a design.

Imagine enjoying your morning tea from a mug you painted yourself, bringing back memories of Cyprus with every sip. A useful little keepsake, filled with your colours and your story.

We’ll introduce you to the materials and guide you through the painting process. After your visit, we take care of glazing and firing and simply collect your finished piece when it’s ready.
