About
Experienced hands
We have over 30 years experience of working with adults, young people and children, sharing our passion for pottery with tens of thousands. Through skillful facilitation and a lot of laughter, we aim to enhance the lives of those we have the privilege to work with.
Visit Our Idyllic Studio
We established Eastnor Pottery in 1994. Originally, we needed workshop space and were offered a charming, redundant cottage on the Eastnor Castle Estate. As our reputation and practice grew, we expanded next door, purchased more equipment and began to share our magical space with others.
Flying Potter – We can come to you
Unable to visit us on the Eastnor Castle Estate? No problem. All the benefits, materials and equipment can be transported to a venue of your choice. We travel all over the place working in schools and community settings. The Flying Potter mobile studio also delivers to libraries, museums, art galleries, conference centres and festivals.
At the end of the session your clay creations can be transported back to our studio to be fired and returned a few weeks later. The fired outcome serves as a permanent reminder of a brilliant day.
Introducing the artists
So here we are! Sarah Monk and Jon Williams founders and co directors of Eastnor Pottery. We met as young art students studying ceramics in Bath. Our eyes met over the potter’s wheel and the rest as they say….. As well as sharing our passion and enthusiasm for pottery with others we are makers in our own right, exhibiting and selling our unique designs. Check out our individual brands.

My partner and I were welcomed so well and made to feel really relaxed during what was an amazing experience. Learning something completely new and having so much fun in the process. Thanks so much guys see you soon! Ross & Lowri.

A brilliant day that I would recommend to anyone – on your own or as a group…With my own wheel / space to work throughout the day, fantastic demonstrations and guidance as we progressed, and as much clay as I wanted to practice with (I had a LOT of ‘learning pots’), I was able to work at my own pace….Worth every penny and I am now positively potty about playing with clay.

Jon came to do some workshops with our year 8 students during our annual activities week. All students (& staff) were thoroughly engaged and delighted to watch and listen intently to Jons entertaining and informative demonstration and then they each had a go at both hand modelling and making a small pot on the potter’s wheel.
Everyone enjoyed the fantastic morning and we will definitely book a workshop again!Bredon School
