About Us

Reflections from the Past Year - Plans for the Coming Year….

We’re so looking forward to 2020! We’ve got lots of really exciting Evening Classes lined up for you guys, as well as our usual Fringe fun. Also on the horizon is a Kids’ After School Clay Club (we’re still working on the snappy name…) and of course our Gallery 31 space featuring local artists.

🍾 Trip Advisor Hall of Fame 🥂

Psst, we've officially made it to the TripAdvisor Hall of Fame! That means we've consistently earned Certificates of Excellence for at least 5 years running. 

We couldn't be more pleased to receive this prestigious award, and would like to thank every one of you who has taken the time to write us a lovely review. We love hearing your feedback! 

Evening Classes

Psst, have you heard? 🗣️ We’ve just updated our evening class list for the next 5 months! 🏺 Be sure to grab your tickets while they’re still available - the last few months have been sold out! Here’s a round up of what you can expect before 2019 is out, with a few examples to whet your appetite and inspire your creativity!

International Women's Day 2019

The theme for this year is #BalanceforBetter. While we understand this is to encourage a world which is gender-balanced, something we are 100% behind, we thought we’d approach the theme from a slightly different angle. So, we’re going to talk about all the lovely women who work here, and the ways in which they balance working at The Painting Pottery Cafe with life outside of work.

The Wonders of Clay

So you’ve come in to paint some pottery upstairs, and loved it. But you want to do more! Fear not, we have just the thing for you. Did you know we don’t just help you paint pottery, we can help you make it too? There are so many great things about clay, we could go on about it all day! Don’t worry we won’t, but we will tell you just a few of the reasons we love this squidgy stuff.
