Nerikomi with The Creative Traveller

Discover the colourful world of nerikomi pottery in this technique-focused handbuilding workshop with Celina of TheCreativeTraveller. In this 3-hour class, you’ll learn how coloured clay can be layered, patterned, and transformed into striking surface designs using traditional nerikomi methods.

Students will be introduced to mason stains, coloured clay preparation, and pattern-building techniques before creating their own nerikomi slab mug. Along the way, Celina will demonstrate how to build patterned clay blocks, create detailed surface designs, and construct a slab-built mug using your custom clay patterns.

This is an intensive workshop packed with demonstrations, technical knowledge, and hands-on practice — many students like to bring a notepad for reference.
