Safi Pottery Design and Painting Workshop

Join a 2-hour standard group pottery design and painting workshop on Safi's pottery hill, guided by local artists and inspired by Safi ceramic motifs.

Getting started

Start your Pottery Design and Painting Workshop by checking in for your Standard Group Pottery Workshop session. After a short introduction from the artists, you settle into the group of up to 10 guests and choose your ceramic piece. Once you are seated with your ceramics, paints and brushes, the artists outline the flow of the 2-hour pottery painting workshop.

What to expect

Pottery design and painting workshop on the Safi pottery hill

This activity is a hands-on Pottery Design and Painting Workshop led by artists on the Safi pottery hill. Across 2 hours, you move from learning about Safi motifs and glazes to decorating a ceramic piece that you will take home.

Features

• Traditional Safi decoration takes center stage as you draw and paint the traditional motifs of Safi ceramics, learning how the brushwork is built up step by step on your chosen piece.
• Technique is a key focus, and you learn how the glazes behave so you can understand color, layering and finish before you commit your final design to the ceramic surface.
• A standard group workshop format keeps the session social, with beginners welcome in groups of up to 10 guests, while the artists offer guidance on Safi motifs and glazes throughout.
• All materials are ready for you, with ceramics, paints and brushes provided so you can concentrate fully on the creative process instead of sourcing supplies.
• The piece you decorate is yours, and at the end of the workshop, you take home your decorated pottery piece as a personal Safi ceramic souvenir.
• During the session, you are offered mint tea, and photos are included, giving you a relaxed break from painting and a visual record of your time in the studio.
