Description
Bristol Creatives Peaceful Pots bring their unique POTHEADS workshop to The Students’ Union. Get hands on and create your own unique pot, adorned with an emotive expression.
You will be guided through the session step-by step, so first time potters are always encouraged. During the fun, relaxing workshop you will have chance to have a play with some clay and learn to create your own, unique plant pot characters - complete with a plant ‘hairstyle’ and expressions to finish the look.
Giggles guaranteed, your Plant Pot Pals are then yours to keep!
