In Alfortville, Marshmallow Poterie Club offers hand-building workshops to discover ceramics with no prior experience. The session involves working clay by hand and making a first piece with guided support.
What do you do during the workshop?
The focus is on hand-building: preparing the clay, constructing a shape, joining pieces and finishing touches. This approach lets you start without mastering the potter's wheel.
Is it suitable for beginners?
Yes. The workshops are designed for a first experience and let you progress through a concrete project, alone, with friends or with family depending on the available sessions.
What happens to your creation?
After the session, the piece must dry and then be fired. Finishing, glazing and collection arrangements vary depending on the workshop booked.
The little extra
The Alfortville location offers a creative activity easily accessible from Paris and the south-east of the Île-de-France region, without needing to enrol in a year-long course.
