Let young makers get hands-on with history as they try the ancient coiling method to create their very own Iron Age-style pot.

Children will start by shaping a small base, then roll long, thin clay coils and build them up layer by layer to form a pot. They can smooth, shape, and decorate their creation using authentic-style tools for a truly historical touch.

Pots are made from air-dry clay and will need to be taken home to dry fully.

Included with admission
Children only
Suitable for ages 3–12 years
