Discover the art of ceramics and create your own Green Man-inspired hanging wall plaque at the Green Man ceramics workshop held at Lackford Lakes, a beautiful natural reserve in Suffolk.

The outdoor workshop takes place at the iconic Green Man sculpture situated at Lackford Lakes. Participants will learn traditional ceramic techniques, focusing on building and hand-shaping, such as slab building and basic sculptural forms, all relevant to the Green Man theme.

No need to worry about bringing your own supplies, as all materials, including clay and basic sculpting tools, will be provided on site. The workshop is perfect for beginners, ensuring everyone can fully engage in the creative process.

During the event, tea, coffee, and biscuits will be available, and the on-site cafe will offer savory food and sweet treats. Please note that dogs are only permitted on the red trail, on a lead.

Upon completion of your masterpiece, your work will be fired, glazed, and ready for pick up after approximately two weeks.
