Mara & Mara

Saturday 18th July | 1:30pm - 4pm | £155

Join Mara & Mara for a creative and expressive ceramics workshop where vintage meets contemporary.

about the workshop

What to expect

During this unique workshop students will design and curate their own artwork using a preloved piece of carefully selected vintage ceramics, each chosen with a unique Kentish twist especially for this course. Mara & Mara’s specialist transfers feature landmarks and imagery synonymous with Kent (Dreamland, Oast houses, Hever Castle to name just a few). 

Guided by acclaimed ceramicist Alice Mara and her sister Emily, you will create a bespoke, functional artwork that ‘reloves’ and continues the story of each individual piece, perfect as a gift for someone special or as a distinctive addition to your own home.
