Pottery Workshop at The Black Eel, Dalston
Date: Thursday 15th January, 2026
Time: 7:30 - 9:30 PM
Address: 41 Kingsland High St, Dalston, London, E8 2JP
Come down the newly refurbished Black Eel in the heart of Dalston for an evening of pottery with your pals. In this fun, relaxed and inclusive workshop we'll show you how to use the pinching technique to make small cups, bowls, trinket dishes, plant pots or whatever your heart (or the clay!) desires.
The session will be run by professional potters and good friends Flo (Florence Mytum Ceramics) and Suzy (We Are Clay). After the session Flo and Suzy will glaze and fire your piece(s) so you can keep and use them forever. They'll be ready for collection from The Black Eel around 4-6 weeks after the workshop.
Delicious food, locally brewed beer, wine and soft drinks will be available from the bar and can be enjoyed during the workshop.
Materials, glazing and the firing of your piece(s) are all included in the price. No experience necessary, suitable for all levels - beginners and seasoned pros alike!
