?Do I need any experience?
Never. Every session is built for beginners, with expert tutors guiding you the whole way.
?What can I do here?
You choose a ready-made ceramic piece from over 300 designs and paint it however you like. We then glaze it and fire it in our kiln, so you take home a finished, food-safe keepsake. No pottery wheel involved. The painting is all yours.
?Can I bring my own drinks?
Yes, on Sip & Paint and late-night sessions. Two cans per person, 18+ to drink. Daytime sessions are family-friendly and alcohol-free.
?When do I get my pottery?
Your painted pieces are ready in 2–3 weeks, and you’ll have a further 30 days to collect them. Book your collection slot online. We don’t send reminders, so do note your date. Uncollected pieces are donated to a local charity.
?Can you host my group or work event?
Yes, we host celebrations and team events for up to 50 guests, with bespoke packages available. Tell us the occasion through the enquiry form and we reply within 24 hours.
?Is the studio accessible?
Yes, the studio is wheelchair accessible. If you have specific requirements, get in touch ahead of your visit and we’ll make sure everything’s ready.
?How long is the pottery painting session?
Our Kentish Town pottery painting sessions last approximately 2 hours.
?Can I walk in for pottery painting?
Yes, walk-ins are welcome, although we recommend booking ahead, particularly for Saturdays.
?How long does it take to get my pottery back?
We glaze and fire your pottery after your session, and it's normally ready to collect within 2–3 weeks.
?Is pottery painting good for a date?
Yes. Studio 136 offers daytime pottery painting as well as evening Sip & Paint sessions, making it suitable for couples and date nights.
?What if my pottery breaks?
Although it’s very rare, pottery can sometimes break in the kiln. If your painted piece breaks, we will offer you a refund or the chance to paint it again. We always take great care with your work, but pottery can be unpredictable.
