Come learn the art of ceramics in a beautiful studio at the base of the You Yangs.
I will be teaching term by term throughout 2026, as well as private classes and intro classes until the property sells.
The studio is set up and ready to launch into another great year - with lots of fun learning and activities planned!
Please follow me on Instagram and Facebook for further updates.
Thanks, Kristen
2hr wheel basics class
This one-off class is a great introduction to the art of throwing. Our qualified teacher will run you through a 2hour class in a relaxed and professional environment. You’ll be able to take home one of your creations included in the class price, once it has gone through the firing and glazing process (usually 3-4 weeks) or all of them if you choose. With a maximum class size of 8, the classes are lighthearted, unhurried and give each student plenty of support but also have the freedom to express your own creativity.
These classes are $79 per person, maximum of 8 per class. For ages 16+ and run at varying times over weekends, please email alkimiceramics@gmail.com if you have any questions.
Term classes
Come along to our 4 week term classes, price includes 2hour classes run at the same time for 4 weeks (8hrs total class time). Classes are for all experience levels, we’ll explore different throwing or hand-building techniques and create fully functional wares and beautiful keep sakes or gifts. Learn the whole process, from throwing and trimming to glazing and decorating - the possibilities are limitless!
Professional studio, all clay and firing is included in the term price - no limit to the amount of clay you can use, and you get to keep as many pieces as you like for glazing and firing.

Platter + Plate workshop
Come create your own ceramic platter + serving plates! This is a hand-building workshop and will run over 2 weeks ~ 2 classes 2 weeks apart. The first class is the making class, we will make 1 large platter and a collection of smaller plates and bowls to use as a set. This creative process is at the workbench, working with slabs rather than on the wheel. The second class will be 2 weeks later, we will focus on decorating and glazing our platters + plates to create a beautiful, functional set for your kitchen.
Perfect for entertaining and a great talking point!
