Frequently asked questions

Helpful information before you book your Mobile Potter experience.

Do I need pottery experience?

Not at all. Both workshops are designed for beginners, and I guide you through each step.

How many people can attend?

Private group workshops are for a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 12 people.

Do I need to organise a venue?

Yes. You choose and arrange the venue. It needs tables, chairs and access to running water.

What is included?

Clay or a ready-made pottery piece, decorating materials, tools, glazing and firing are included, depending on the workshop you choose.

How long do the workshops take?

Paint, Create & Unwind takes 2–3 hours. Shape, Create & Glaze includes two 2–3 hour sessions.

When will my pottery be ready?

Your pottery usually takes around 4–6 weeks to dry, glaze and fire. I’ll let you know when it is ready to collect or return.

How do I secure a private booking?

Once the date and venue are agreed, a 30% deposit per person confirms your booking. The remaining balance is due on the day.

Where do you travel?

The Mobile Potter runs workshops across Southland, Otago and surrounding areas. Send an enquiry with your town and I’ll confirm availability.
