Around Wollongong, the create-and-sip night is done with clay rather than canvas. Two ceramics studios run social sessions where the drinks are BYO and everyone gets their hands dirty making something of their own.
Clay Wollongong is a community ceramics studio on Keira Street in the CBD. Its private Wine & Clay handbuilding sessions take groups of 10 to 40, with BYO drinks and nibbles, and its wheel-throwing taster parties guide 8 to 12 people from a first lump of clay to a finished piece. It also runs kids clay parties for 6 to 16 children aged 4 and up, with every piece glazed and fired by the studio. Prices start from $50 per person.
Soul Clay Studios is a purpose-built pottery studio in Gerringong. It hosts private pottery sessions for hens parties, birthdays and work groups, and its Friday Night Clay Date is a two-hour BYO wine session with light refreshments supplied. The studio shop stocks handmade ceramics by more than 15 resident artists, and visitors are welcome to watch them at work.
