The Benefits of Pottery

Between you and the material you work with, there are only a few small tools—your hands being the primary ones, directly shaping the clay. The contact with clay frees the mind, relaxes the body, and facilitates breathing. In the hands of artisans, this material responds to the impulses of imagination.

Shaping something beautiful with your hands provides immediate satisfaction and, in the long term, improves your mood. Pottery boosts self-confidence and also enhances communication, as workshops are usually held in small groups where participants can exchange ideas, share creativity, and be inspired by one another.

Programme
Demonstration: Maximum 15 minutes
Hands-on modelling: Create a cup, trinket dish, sculpture, or try wheel throwing with the pottery machine.
Take your pieces home: After the session, you can take your creations with you in a practical bag. Let them dry at home for a day, then paint them once they have hardened.
Firing option: If you are staying in Marrakech for at least six days after the workshop, you can have your pieces fired.
Important: A piece containing water inside will explode in the kiln, which is why the drying period of six days is necessary before firing.

We offer you a unique experience with Marrakech clay, accompanied by a glass of Moroccan tea.
I assure you, you’re going to love it!
