Everything to Know About Paint & Sip

In West Wollongong the creative group night happens at a potter's table rather than an easel: Ground Up Pottery is a small studio on Lexburn Avenue run by a couple who host private clay parties.

Nobody needs to be artistic, and the relaxed pace is the point.

How a private clay party at the West Wollongong studio works:

  • Up to 12 guests, which keeps the group small enough for proper help from the hosts.
  • Around three hours of hand-building, with clay, tools and glaze supplied.
  • Every guest picks a glaze colour on the day for the piece they made.
  • The studio glazes and fires the work, and the organiser collects it three to four weeks later.
  • Group events start from $98 per person.

Couples can book a two-hour date night instead, on the wheel or at the hand-building table.
