About Paint Clay Sip Sydney

Paint Clay Sip is a pair of pottery studios on Dickson Avenue in Artarmon, run by the small independent team behind Print Paint Pot. The pink studio at number 27 is the party room, decorated in a tropical holiday theme, while the green studio at 53 hosts wheel classes on weekday mornings and afternoons. Sessions are BYO, so groups bring their own drinks and snacks while a teacher shows them how to shape clay. There are two ways to make something. Wheel throwing is the messier, more technical option and suits groups of two to fifteen in a two-hour class. Hand building uses slabs and tools to make a mug, vase, planter or other vessel, and is less messy, which is why it is often chosen for hens parties and team events. Groups of sixteen to thirty usually split in two and swap halfway through a two to three hour party, and hand building classes can take larger numbers again. Every guest's work is trimmed, glazed and fired to stoneware, so the finished pieces can go in the dishwasher, oven and microwave. Private classes include two fired pots per guest, with extra pieces at $15 each. Pieces can be picked up or posted. Children from eight can join a private class, parking is easiest after 5pm on weekdays and on weekends, and a bus from Chatswood station stops nearby.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a private pottery party cost?

Private classes are $120 per guest for small bookings, dropping to $95 per guest for six or more and $85 per guest for eight or more. Larger parties at the pink studio can come down to $75 per guest.

Is it wheel throwing or hand building?

Either. Groups of two to fifteen can do a two-hour wheel class, while sixteen to thirty guests usually split between the wheel and hand building and swap halfway.

Do we get to keep what we make?

Yes. Pieces are trimmed, glazed and fired to food, dishwasher and microwave safe stoneware, then collected from the studio or posted. Private classes include two pieces per guest.

Can we bring food and drinks?

Classes are BYO for food and drinks. Cups, table space and ice buckets are available, and pizza is a popular choice for longer bookings.

Can children take part?

Private classes welcome guests aged eight and up, so they work for kids' birthdays. The public clay and sip hand building class is for adults 18 and over.

Amazing experience:))) I brought my mom and my boyfriend for a fun night and it was worth it. We had so much fun even though my mom couldn’t fully understand the instructions (she’s Thai) but the teacher was very patient…

Lovely experience with pottery making! It’s our first time and Elgan (pottery coach) made it a lot easier for us. Definitely worth a try and will book again!

Had such a great time at this pottery class. The instructor was super patient and explained everything really well. The vibe was relaxed and fun, and it was a great way to switch off and get creative for a couple of hour…
