Discover the Joy of Making Ceramics at Zizamele!

Join us at our studio in Cape Town South Peninsula for a fun and therapeutic ceramics class. Our experienced instructors will guide you through the process of creating your very own unique piece, from hand-building to wheel throwing. No prior experience is necessary!

Our classes offer a variety of options of ceramics to make, including:

- Hand-formed animal-shaped containers
- Pinch pot birds
- Slab or thrown planters
- Molded soap dishes
- Vases
- Wheel-thrown mugs or cups

Classes are held on Thursdays from 10:30am to 12:30pm. However, we can accommodate other days by appointment.

All participants receive a 10% discount on any purchases made at our studio on the day of their class.

Finished pieces will be ready for collection one week after the class and can be collected from our studio or our shop at The Waterfront.

If you live far away, we can arrange for courier delivery at an additional cost.

The cost is R350 per person, which includes tuition, materials, and glaze firing. Coffee is not included, but there's a great coffee shop nearby.
