Open Studio is a great opportunity to practise and build on the skills you’ve acquired, work on your own projects, and explore new ideas at your own pace. Whether you’d like to improve your wheel-throwing skills, experiment with hand building, try alternative forms, or combine both techniques, Open Studio gives you the freedom and flexibility to focus on your own style and creativity.
It’s also a great way to keep practising between classes and make the most of your time in the studio, whether during the term or in between terms.
