Paint your own pottery at The Firs
Join us for a creative pottery‑painting workshop at The Firs hosted by the Museum of Royal Worcester. Be inspired by music, art, and heritage and create your own unique ceramic piece.
- Booking essential
Enjoy a relaxing and creative experience in the inspiring surroundings of The Firs, the birthplace of Edward Elgar. In this special pop-up event, The Museum of Royal Worcester invites you to paint your own ceramic piece, drawing inspiration from Elgar's music, nature and the rich decorative heritage of Worcester porcelain.
Choose from either a ceramic plate or mug and take time to create your own unique design - whether bold and expressive or calm and reflective. Perfect for friends, couples or individuals looking for a mindful, creative activity. No experience is needed, all materials are provided and friendly guidance is on hand from the Museum of Royal Worcester.
Your finished piece will be professionally glazed and fired by the Museum, ready for collection from The Firs at a later date.
