Join us for a hands-on pottery experience where you’ll design and hand build your very own Ceramic tealight house traditional techniques and inspired by our museum collections and slip casting moulds. Guided by experienced ceramic artist, Elaine Lim-Newton, you’ll learn how to shape, texture, and decorate your piece using slab-building methods — perfect for beginners or those looking to refine their skills.
