Get a taste of clay sculpture by learning how to sculpt a human, animal, or mythical head!

Join us for this one-day workshop and learn how to sculpt your own ceramic head using crank clay. You can choose from human, animal or mythical heads for your inspiration when moulding, forming, and carving your head. You will be able to pick up your head once it has been fired and learn about the different finishing techniques you can use.

You can book one day to make a smaller head, or two days to make a larger one.

This workshop will be delivered by Kay Latto.

Latto’s artwork has been exhibited locally and nationally. In 2019, she exhibited her Grayson Perry sculpture at the 250th Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.
