Take a quiet moment to slow down and enjoy the simple, grounding act of working with clay. In this relaxing workshop, artist Rhona Paterson invites you to explore the sensory qualities of clay - its texture, temperature and weight through playful, mindful making. You’ll learn simple hand-building techniques like pinch pots, coiling, and imprinting with natural textures. The heart of the workshop is a quiet, focused making time where hands lead and the mind rests. This workshop offers an antidote to making objects and instead the focus will be on process as a mindful, tactile reset for nervous system regulation, creativity, and connection—perfect for individuals, families, and anyone seeking a moment of calm.
This two-hour session is suitable for children of all ages, and runs twice during the day. Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult.
Morning: 10am-12pm
Afternoon: 2pm-4pm
