Perfect for a gift or for yourself, these gnomes will be a lovely addition to your home. 

The session will be taught in a friendly and relaxing environment, no previous experience of working with clay is required as you will be expertly guided by the tutor.

You will have an allocation of clay which is sufficient for making your gnome. Please bring along photos for inspiration, this could be something with your favourite colours or you might take inspiration from your local football team!

Please be aware that clean up time starts at least 15 minutes before the end of the session.

Sally Clarke

A fabulous space with all you require to unleash your creative side. The tutors are so informative and supportive, I’m hooked!

Treated myself to this course at the beginning of the year. It's been a wonderful, relaxing, creative and therapeutic experience and the staff at Workshop 305 are great too! Even if you don't feel you have any 'creativity' on you, or don't have any prior experience - the support from the tutor was fantastic and seeing the finished versions of the items you have made yourself is truly special. Thanks Workshop 305, I'm already thinking about what I can make in the Improvers Workshop
