Is this for me?

The Makers Series clay workshops are designed for young people aged 16-30 from Luton. No experience required.

Info

If you’re aged 16-30 and live, work, or study in Luton, join us for The Makers Series and let’s make something special.

This month, we’re hosting an experimental workshop exploring textures, form and depth with clay as we create expressive ceramic wall art.

On Wednesday 19 November 2025 at Marsh House Community Centre, we will be working with pre-prepared slabs of clay to learn joining and moulding techniques to build our slab bases.

For this, participants are encouraged to bring textured objects along with them to impress into the clay and add detail. There will be some carving tools and textured objects available too.

The workshop starts at 17:30 and there will be time at the beginning of the session to get inspired and design your piece, but bringing some ideas with you will give you more time to make with clay!

Sign up for free here.

 

About the Artist

Snail is a multi-disciplinary artist based in Luton. They have a community focused practice, using their preferred mediums of ceramics, textiles and print to highlight inequalities, incite resistance and explore the human relationship to the more-than-human world. With a passion for making change in their locality, they co-founded Lugus Ceramics, a community interest company set up to provide ceramic skills and facilities in Luton, with a focus on accessibility for the most disadvantaged in our community.
