Celebrate Mother’s Day with a creative and meaningful outing at Queenston Pottery. Taking place on May 9, 2026, this hands-on clay workshop offers a unique way to spend time together while making something personal and lasting. With two convenient sessions available—11 am to 12:30 pm and 3 pm to 4:30 pm—it’s easy to plan a memorable visit that fits your day.

Create Something Truly Personal

This 90-minute workshop invites participants to transform a simple stoneware tumbler into a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Starting with a leather-hard clay base, you’ll be guided through the process of sculpting and decorating your design. From intricate floral patterns to playful faces or textured finishes, each piece becomes a reflection of your creativity.

No experience is required, making this workshop approachable for beginners while still engaging for those with an artistic flair. Friendly instructors are on hand throughout the session, offering guidance, tips, and encouragement as you bring your ideas to life.

What’s Included

Everything is thoughtfully prepared so you can focus on the experience:

• A stoneware tumbler ready for sculpting and personalisation
• All tools, materials, and step-by-step instructions
• A refreshing lemonade bar to enjoy during the session
• Professional glazing and kiln firing at 1330°C, ensuring a food-safe and durable finish
• Access to browse the studio’s gallery collections

Once completed, your piece will be professionally finished and available for collection or shipping within 6–12 weeks, giving you a lasting keepsake from the day.

Perfect for Families and Friends

Designed for ages 12 and up, this experience is well-suited for mums and teens, close friends, or multi-generational groups looking to spend quality time together. Younger participants may also be welcomed if they are able to stay engaged and work independently with guidance.

Advance registration is recommended due to limited space, though walk-ins may be accepted if availability allows. Larger groups can enquire about alternative arrangements, and shipping options are available for those who prefer delivery.

A Gift That Lasts

This Mother’s Day, consider giving something beyond the traditional. A shared creative experience offers not only a chance to relax and connect, but also a handmade piece to treasure. It’s a simple yet meaningful way to celebrate the people who matter most.
