Service Description
Ladies' Ceramic Club: Slab Building with Clay This ladies' ceramic club at Harrow Arts Centre is your me time: a calm space to connect, de-stress, and switch off through hands-on making. After exploring coil and pinch techniques last term, we now move on to slab building, working with both stoneware and terracotta. This term's projects are a mug, a box, and a tile. Projects are about the process, not perfection. Clay is unpredictable and results vary from person to person.

Breakages and Firing Clay is a natural material and firing is delicate, so outcomes can't be guaranteed. Mittika takes no responsibility for pieces that crack, warp, or break at any stage, including while drying, during firing, glazing, or finishing, or while being transported or collected. This is simply a natural part of working with clay.
