I thoroughly enjoyed the ceramics workshop at Aa is for Art with friends for a special birthday. Anna is a great teacher who carefully and patiently explained each step of the process to our group of beginners, some adults and some kids. The class was well resourced and there were many directions for us to take with our designs. I was really happy with my finished item and I exceeded my expectations in what I was able to achieve. I really recommend this workshop and would enjoy taking another one here.
