Enjoy a unique afternoon with this extended-format plant pot-making workshop. You’ll have three and a half hours to take your time crafting a larger or more complex piece, all while enjoying a beer in a relaxed, creative atmosphere. It’s the perfect way to unwind and learn the art of ceramics at a leisurely, enjoyable pace.
Duration: 3 and a half hours.
What’s included: Clay, tools, two kiln firings and a beer (or your favorite drink).
Level: No experience required.
Unlike our regular sessions, this 3½-hour workshop is designed for those who want to dive deeper into hand-building and take home a piece with real presence and character. At Beatriz Seijo’s Art Studio, we believe that clay has its own rhythm; that’s why we’ve created this unhurried format—allowing you to savor every stage of the process, perhaps while enjoying a nice, cold beer.
With guidance from our team, you’ll have all the time you need to plan, build, and add details to a plant pot that is not only functional for your plants but also a true decorative piece with your own personal touch.
The extra time allows us to take technique a step further, enabling you to explore aspects that we don’t typically cover in shorter classes:
Construction and volume: You will learn how to provide structure and stability to larger-scale pots using slab-building or reinforced coil-building techniques.
Detail and texture: Time is dedicated to working on complex finishes, adding feet to your pots, sculpting handles, or designing integrated drainage systems.
A relaxed atmosphere: A break—complete with a beer (or soft drink)—fosters a social environment where you can share ideas and enjoy the studio’s creative community.
Final decoration: Applying textures and engravings to the clay, giving your piece a professional finish before it goes into the kiln.
In our plant pot-making workshop, we ensure you have everything you need. We use high-quality ceramic clay that provides the porosity essential for the health of your plants. The price includes all materials, the firing of your pieces and a drink.
It’s the perfect experience for plant lovers looking for a unique activity in Santiago de Compostela—or for anyone who simply wants to spend an afternoon creating something beautiful with their own hands.
Step away from the clock, get your hands dirty, and raise a glass to your finished creation! We look forward to seeing you at our Plant Pots & Beers workshop!
By booking any of our experiences or workshops, you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions in their entirety. Our goal is to ensure the best possible organization and artistic quality for each session.
To ensure the viability of our workshops, your place will only be considered guaranteed once payment has been confirmed . If the payment process is not completed, the system will automatically cancel the reservation to release the space.
Our workshops have very limited capacity and require careful preparation of materials and staff. For this reason, we have established the following operating margin:
7 calendar days’ prior notice (or more): If you notify us of your absence at least one week in advance, you will receive a Workshop Voucher for the full amount paid. This voucher is valid for one year and can be redeemed for any activity at our school.
Cancellations made less than 7 days in advance: No voucher or refund will be issued, as the time frame does not allow for reassignment of the place and the materials will have already been processed.
Courtesy note: However, if we have a waiting list and are able to fill your place with another student, or if last-minute vacancies arise in future editions of the same workshop, we will do our best to accommodate you. This is subject to availability and does not constitute a contractual obligation.
Right of Withdrawal: As these are activities with a specific date and execution period (Art. 103.l of the LGDCU), no monetary refunds will be accepted outside of the indicated deadlines.
Redemption: Workshop Vouchers are valid for any activity available on the platform within their validity period.
Process: The redemption must be made through a new purchase process. For logistical reasons, it is not possible to purchase a gift voucher using a previous voucher.
Balance Management: If the voucher value is higher than the chosen workshop, the difference will be kept as a balance for future purchases. If the value is lower, the difference must be paid at the time of booking.
If the workshop cannot be held due to circumstances beyond our control or because the minimum number of students is not reached, you can choose between:
A full refund of the amount using the same original payment method.
You can exchange it directly for another workshop of your interest available on our calendar.
In the pottery workshops, the process concludes with the retrieval of your finished piece. Once you receive notification that your pieces are ready:
You will have one calendar month to collect them from the studio.
Due to space limitations, any unclaimed items after this period will be recycled or donated, and the right to claim them later will be forfeited.
Do I need to have prior knowledge of ceramics? Not at all. Our experiences are designed so that anyone, regardless of their experience level, can enjoy and create. The teachers who teach the workshops and experiences will guide you step by step throughout the entire process.
What should I bring to the workshop? Just your desire to enjoy. In the studio we will provide you with all the necessary material, tools and apron. It is recommended to bring comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting a little dirty (although the mud cleans up easily).
When can I pick up my piece? Ceramics have their times. After the workshop, the pieces must dry completely, go through a first firing (biscuit), be glazed and fired a second time. This process usually takes between 2 to 3 weeks. We will notify you as soon as they are ready to pick up.
How long do I have to pick up my piece once finished? Once you receive our notice that your pieces have gone through the two firings and are ready to be picked up, you have a period of 1 month natural to stop by the studio to pick them up.
Due to the space limitations of our workshop and the need to organize new works, if after that month the piece has not been collected, we will understand that you renounce it and we will proceed to give it other uses (donation, recycling or exhibition). We don’t want you to be left without your creation, so we recommend you come get it as soon as possible!
Gift Vouchers
They gave me an Experience Bonus, how do I redeem it? What a great gift! The process is very simple:
Browse our website and choose the workshop or date you prefer.
Start the purchasing process.
Enter the your voucher code in the “Coupon” box at checkout. The amount will be automatically deducted.
How valid is my voucher? All our vouchers are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. We recommend you book in advance to ensure your place on the desired date.
Can I redeem my voucher for any workshop and/or experience? That’s right. Our bonuses are not linked to any specific workshop or experience. You can exchange them for any activity at our school that interests you (a monographic workshop, an intensive course, a continuing course, etc.). If the activity you want to sign up for has an amount greater than your voucher, you will only have to pay the difference. If the amount is less, the remaining balance will be saved for your next visit.
What happens if I cannot attend the reserved date? If you notify us at least 7 days in advance, we will give you a voucher for the value of the workshop so you can choose another date. If the notice is later, unfortunately we will not be able to make the exchange or return, since the materials and space will have been reserved for you.
Can I send someone else in my place? Sure! If you can’t come, you can give your place to a friend or family member. You just have to tell us the workshop, date and person who comes in your place.
What happens if a piece breaks in the kiln? Ceramics is a living art and, although we take all the care in the world, sometimes pieces can crack or break during firing. If this happens with a piece of yours, we will look for the best solution so that you are not left without the memory of your experience.
