Come and make your very own handcrafted clay mug with Pottymouth Workshop!
Join ceramicists Naomi Stokes and Meredith Mason at Bristol's award-winning brewery, Wiper and True, in Old Market.
You'll be guided step-by-step through the process of making your own slab-built ceramic mug. You don't need any previous clay experience as everything will be fully explained on the day.
What to expect:
After a brief demonstration from your experts, you'll be left to flex your new skills! Practise the fundamentals of slab building: rolling out clay, slip and scoring, and decorative techniques to finish off with your personal and unique design.
Your finished item will be left with your hosts who will fire and glaze your work. You will be contacted to collect your mugs from your host within 4-5 weeks.

Had the best time thank you so much!

The hosts are really lovely, warm and welcoming. The session is easy to follow and you are given a lot of support. It’s relaxing and fun way to spend an evening. Couldn’t improve
Really enjoyed it
Really lovely teachers, great location (and beer!), easy to do but not boring and sooo excited to collect my fired mug! Also looking forward to going back to Wiper & True x
Lovely evening class, well facilitated with all the tools and know how to make a fun mug!
Naomi and Meredith were so helpful and lovely, the mug making was really fun!
Very well organised event. A lot of fun. Had creative freedom with support from organisers. Perfect location with parking onsite.
What’s not to like - pottery fun in a brewery.
Loved it! Really fun, great instructions and such a friendly instructor. Amazing venue at wiper and true. Would highly recommend!
I loved it. Excellent hosts - Right level of instruction and relaxed support while giving us space to create our mug creations!
Highly recommended.
Instruction very clear and very fun to do !
I have now done this twice with different friends and it was such a fun, creative experience
Such a great evening, in a great venue. Naomi and Mez were so helpful and friendly, and the actual process of making the mugs was great fun. Would absolutely do it all over again, and will definitely be back for another workshop with them.
The hosts were really helpful and the activity had a good balance of creative freedom and instruction- I had such a nice time! Thank you x
Very fun!
It was very fun and the staff there were excellent in helping us with our creations! Would love.to.do another one!
Had a great time at this workshop!
Had a really lovely time. 5 of us went together and we enjoyed it :)
*I would have liked to have slightly more time, maybe another half hour.
Great experience and location.
2.5 hours sounds enough time but definitely a little rushed at the end
Really nice evening at Wiper and True. Our hosts were lovely and really helpful. I would definitely go again and recommend it!!
Fantastic experience! The hosts were very welcoming and knowledgeable, helping whenever needed. Looking forward to collecting the finished mugs!
Brilliant experience, thank you!
We went as a family for a birthday celebration and everyone love getting creative making their mugs! Great tuition and atmosphere and always hands on to help! We cannot wait to see what all our mugs look like when we pick them up in a few weeks :). Have already recommended to friends to do!
Bought as gift for my girlfriend and she loved it thank you!
Great fun, great beer, and great hosts
Good fun, recommend taking your time and getting some ideas beforehand. looking forward to getting our mugs in a few weeks!
Had so much fun and the teachers were so encouraging and helpful.
I had a great time! A chance to do something completely different with lovely hosts and great beer. Perfect evening, really, thank you!
A fun evening with good instruction and a discount on beer. Excellent.
Super fun experience to do alone, with friends or as a date. Definitely worth the money!
Great fun, something a bit different! Looking forward to seeing how the mugs turn out 😁
Had a great time making mugs with some mates at wiper and true. Hosts were friendly and provided a lot of help and encouragement!
Wonderful experience - would definitely do this again!
Very friendly and helpful hosts. Overall very good vibe. Never done pottery before so it was a really fun environment to try it out.
The ladies running it were super friendly and supportive during the session. The demonstration at the start was thorough enough and was easy to ask questions as we progressed. There were plenty of tools and paint to decorate with and the helpers were very helpful with decoration ideas. It was my first time handling clay and I found it to be a very good introduction to hand building. The location was great too, even got a cheeky discount of drinks.
Really well executed event. Fun and informative
Me and my friend came all the way from Taunton, can you believe! We had the best time and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The hosts were so friendly, super helpful and the equipment provided was fab.
The hosts gave us enough information to build the basics and then we had enough time and help to be as creative as we liked.
Really interactive
Friendly professionals
Good fun
Had a lovely time, the host were lovely, really helpful & friendly. Lovely location to host! Really enjoyed myself and would happily book again!
We had a great time.
Brilliant fun and in a great venue - would definitely do again!
Pottymouth's pottery session at Wiper and True was brilliant. Myself and my partner have been to the taproom before so we know it's a fab location off the bat. The hosts were so lovely, encouraging and informative and the evening whizzed by. I'd definitely recommend this experience, it is extremely beginner friendly. Thank you Pottymouth Pottery :)
We had a great time!
Fun & good location
Great location and fun evening!
Had such a great time, would highly recommend!
Pottymouth were great hosts and the taproom was stunning. Great fun!
Really lovely evening, well organised and led with detailed explanations and a relaxed atmosphere - would go again!
A very enjoyable night, hosts made all provisions they could for me (severe hearing loss), & I would definitely do this again. Alas the venue was not ideal, as there was no separation between the main bar, and "the snug" so loud music & chatter drowned out most of what I could hear, they could really do with some noise baffling dividers. Don't let that put you off, though, because you'd be missing out on a great night, & even if your mug is an abomination (like mine) you'll treasure the memories
Such a good evening!
It was a really good evening out, the hosts were really supportive and I liked the location
Lovely weeknight activity at a great venue, the hosts made sure that the work was done by yourself!
Lots of fun!
We had such a wonderful time at Pottymouth! It was our first experience with Yuup and I don’t think we could have found a more perfect workshop. The setup was really cool, it was similar to being in a studio environment and so it was great value for money. The hosts were really lovely, very knowledgeable and were always on hand to help. Very relaxed atmosphere, perfect for catching up with a friend, much better than just going for a drink! Would highly recommend! Thank youuu!
Really nice workshop, the surroundings were nice as well, but it was often hard to hear the workshop hosts when demonstrating. Realise that is a problem in these sort of venues.
The workshops hosts were lovely and very supportive throughout. On hand to answer any questions and make suggestions as and when needed. The right balance of interaction. Would do this again.
Very enjoyable beginners mug making class in a nice setting with good atmosphere and a free drink
Brilliant evening in a beautiful location. Would recommend!
Perfect fun evening with friends & awesome location!
Naomi & Meredith explained the process and broke everything down into clear steps. They made everything appear so gracefully simple (spoiler, that's years of experience).
To my surprise, I created a mug which actually looks like a mug.
It's not just an abstract mug shape. No advance warning required that it's a mug.
It's a usable mug; my mug.
On top of that, I had a great time.
All of that is testament to Naomi & Meredith's skill and care.
