Highlights
-
Pulcinella sciòroom - The magic potter’s wheel.
You will be able to learn the basic positions and feel the pleasant sensation of wet clay running fast under your fingers.
You get so dirty, but it’s amazing to see a shape grow in your hands.
It’s a difficult art and it takes many hours of practice before you can make a potter’s wheel.
I will help you make at least one small cup.

Beautiful experience - We had a first experience of pottery on the lathe. Elvira is a very helpful and patient person, she was able to explain in detail all the steps.
I also recommend the experience to those like us who had never approached ceramics.
Super appreciated the souvenir we brought home

Best part of my day in Vietri sul Mare! - This was without a doubt the highlight of my day trip in Vietri sul Mare! Elvira was so welcoming and is a fantastic teacher — I loved that I could learn about the importance of ceramics for the city while trying the process myself. Such a unique experience to appreciate Vietri sul Mare with a talented artist. You should definitely find time to take this class with Elvira, even if you are only there for the day!

I had such a great time... - I had such a great time at the ceramic lesson! The teacher was super friendly and made the whole process easy and fun. I got to learn the basics, try out different techniques, and make something I was really proud of. It was relaxing, creative, and a nice break from just sightseeing. Definitely a unique experience I’d recommend to anyone visiting!

Worth having a go - I enjoyed the 121 lesson on throwing a pot and Elvira is a skilled potter - she was able to break it down into easy steps and help me when I had a go. She also gave me a history of ceramics in the town which was fascinating.
