Nerikomi Pottery Workshop

📅 12, 19 and 26 MARCH 2026 (3 days) | ⏰ 10am–4pm | Cost: $350 | 5 places available
Discover the beauty of nerikomi pottery, a Japanese technique where coloured clays are layered and patterned to create stunning, one-of-a-kind designs.

This three-part workshop will take you through the full process:
- Day 1: You’ll dive into colour and form as you tint your clay and build a richly patterned nerikomi block from coloured coils. The block needs resting to equalise moisture content.
- Day 2: On this day you’ll create a slab from the nerikomi block you built on day 1. And then you’ll create one or more pieces from your slab. Your objects will undergo their first firing, and will ready for glazing on day 3.
- Day 3: The unveiling! You’ll lightly sand your objects, which have been fired in the kiln. Finally, you’ll glaze your pieces to add depth and brilliance, before it returns to the kiln for its second firing — emerging as finished, one-of-a-kind artworks.


This workshop is a collaboration between McGlashen Pottery and Studio127 and takes place at the pottery in Brightwater.
