Student & University Society Socials London | Pottery Workshop
Planning a social for your student or university society in London? Bring your group for a hands-on pottery session in Doppiocotto's working ceramics studio in Waterloo, London SE1, a 9-minute walk from Waterloo station and a 2-minute walk from Lambeth North station. Sessions are taught personally by ceramic artist Bora Cetin, who has 25 years of experience working with clay, in the same studio where every piece in the Doppiocotto shop is made by hand.
Why pottery for a society social
It's a fresh alternative to the usual bar crawl or pub quiz, easy for members who don't know each other yet, and no experience is needed. Everyone leaves with something they made.
