A lovely moment together—hands in clay, minds at ease. At this pottery workshop, everyone can bring their own ideas to life with guidance from a professional. You can make a mug, bowl, relief or something entirely your own. The amount of clay available won’t limit your creativity. You can make several pieces, as long as they fit in the box used to transport them to CIHU’s studio for finishing. After the workshop, your creations will be carefully dried, fired, glazed and glaze-fired. Your beautifully finished pieces will be delivered to your workplace together in approximately one month.

This team workshop brings people together and highlights the best of teamwork. Everyone gets to create a unique ceramic piece of their own—but the finished work is truly a collaborative effort. During the workshop, you’ll get to leave your own mark on a colleague’s piece, and in return, others will add surprises to yours. The workshop inspires you to see how important every team member is. Working with clay, you’ll make cups, bowls and other creations, but above all, you’ll spark new insights, conversations and good vibes.

A glass decorating workshop is the perfect way to spend a relaxing and inspiring moment together. It’s shorter than our other workshops, but the results are always a delightful surprise—the shades, textures and details of the glazes make every piece unique. You’ll be given a shaped, bisque-fired tile to decorate. With guidance from our instructors, you’ll get to try different glazing techniques and combine colours to create a beautiful design of your own. After the workshop, the tiles are taken to the studio for glaze firing. Your durable, glazed pieces will be delivered to your workplace together within approximately two weeks. The glass workshop is a great addition to a more leisurely programme or a light creative break, and gives you a striking handmade piece to remember it by.

The finished set makes a striking display that brings light and atmosphere to your home or workspace. After the workshop, the clay candle holders are taken to the studio to dry, be finished and fired. The finished pieces—a candle holder of your own and matching twisted candles—will be delivered to your workplace as a group shipment in about a month. The candle-making workshop is a perfect way to enjoy time together, and you’ll take home a beautiful, practical set that will brighten your mood and your space for years to come.

The printmaking workshop offers a peaceful moment to explore your creativity and discover your own artistic style. You’ll create four unique prints on high-quality 300g paper, choosing your own subject. Each print is signed and numbered, just as in traditional fine-art printmaking. The prints measure approximately 160 x 160 mm, and the workshop’s highlight is seeing one of your prints finished and framed. The framed piece features a beautiful mat and clear acrylic glass to protect and elegantly showcase your artwork (finished size approximately 200 x 200 mm). This inspiring workshop is a chance to slow down, try something new and head home with your own artwork, framed and ready to hang on the wall.

After the workshop, your pieces are taken to the studio to dry, be finished and fired. The finished pieces can be collected from CIHU's Konala studio in about a month.
