    Join our Design Your Own Mug workshop—a hands-on ceramic painting experience perfect for creative kids and teens this school holiday!

    Each participant (ages 9–16) will receive a bisque-fired ceramic mug, ready to decorate in their own unique style. To make it even more fun, they’ll choose from quirky handle designs like a croissant, donut, baguette, chocolate fish, and more!

    Using a wide selection of underglaze colours, kids will learn how to bring their design to life with guidance and all materials provided. After the session, each mug will be professionally glazed and kiln-fired, making it food-safe, glossy, and ready to use or proudly display.

    *For ages 9–16 only. Maximum of 2 participants per session.
