Pottery classes in Sitges

At Santa Laura Clay Studio, in Sitges, we offer pottery courses for all levels, in small groups and by the Mediterranean. Under Laura's guidance you'll learn the key techniques, slab work, moulds, wheel-throwing, hand-building and glazing, by immersion or in a spray booth, all the way to the final firing. All courses include materials, tools and the finishing of your pieces.

Whether you've never touched clay or you already have experience, you'll find your level. And if you're looking for something different, discover our tailor-made experiences too.
