Everyone’s invited to roll up their sleeves and get creative at this year’s 1770 Festival, with the return of the much-loved “Play with Clay” workshop, hosted by local ceramic artist Johanna from Wolf and Clay.

Held across Saturday 24 May and Sunday 25 May from 9am to 3pm, this free hands-on workshop is open to all ages – from young children to curious adults. Whether you’re a complete beginner or just want to try something new, this is the perfect chance to get your hands in some clay and create your very own little masterpiece.

Participants can shape and mould simple items like bowls or trinket dishes, and enjoy the fun, mindful experience of working with clay under Johanna’s gentle guidance.

“I love seeing people of all ages discover the joy of clay,” says Johanna. “There’s something really special about making something with your hands and watching it come to life.”No bookings are required – simply walk in anytime during the workshop hours and have a go!
