Features

• A one-hour traditional pottery workshop with a local potter gives you structured, hands-on time at the wheel or worktable, from the first demonstration to your final piece. The entire one-hour hands-on session is guided from start to finish, so you always know what to do next.
• All materials and tools are provided on site, so you do not need to bring anything to participate. The potter shows you how to use each tool correctly while you experiment with forming and refining your clay.
• Guidance throughout the session is continuous, with the local potter stepping in to correct technique, answer questions, and demonstrate key steps for the group. This support is included in the standard group workshop format and is tailored to a small-group setting.
• Water or tea is served during the workshop, giving you a short pause between stages of working the clay. Before you leave, a souvenir photo is taken so you can remember your time in the traditional pottery session at a family workshop in Al Haouz.
