Pottery Painting & Craft Studios in Brighton
Right in the centre, Paint Pots Brighton lets you pick a plate or mug from £3 and Seaside Splatter does canvas splattering with brushes or water pistols, or full neon under UV lights. Pottery Gagliano offers wheel-throwing courses and an Open Studio you pay for by the hour, and Parkside Pottery does the paint-a-mug-and-collect-in-a-fortnight version from £6, with free parking. Further out, Shoreham Pottery in Southwick, Brighton is a marina-side studio for hand building, wheel throwing or painting, and there's a longer trip out to Lewes for MasterPiece, with over four hundred shapes to choose from plus glass fusing. For toddlers, Parkside Pottery and poponin in Hassocks (from £6) both take ages 0+ or 3+. Older children are better served by The Mud House or Romud Ceramics, both proper pottery-wheel sessions for kids from 6, or art-K Hove's weekly classes with teacher input for 5 to 18 year olds. Teenagers and adults have Salty Dog Pottery Studio, a wheel studio out at Pulborough for 14+.
