With Wecandoo : create your ceramics with your child

FAMILY WORKSHOP: Come as a family and create your own masterpiece — who will make the most beautiful one?

Share a creative and bonding moment with your child during the family ceramics workshop led by Jean-Michel! A former fashion designer, Jean-Michel warmly welcomes you to his intimate workshop for a playful and enriching introduction to working with clay. With a maximum of three parent-child pairs, he invites you to explore the art of ceramics while crafting a unique object together.

The workshop begins with a tour of the studio, where Jean-Michel will reveal the secrets of the material and techniques. He will take the time to explain the different stages of working with clay and introduce you to the essential tools needed to create your breakfast set or any other inspired creation. The program includes an introduction to hand-building and slab techniques, suitable for all skill levels and little hands eager to create!

Then, it’s your turn! Together, choose the design of your project — whether cups, bowls, plates, or whimsical small sculptures. Using the techniques taught by Jean-Michel, you will shape unique pieces together, hand in hand. For the finishing touch, he will offer a selection of colorful engobes to personalize your raw clay creations, adding a splash of color and originality to your shared artwork.

At the end of the workshop, Jean-Michel will take care of firing your pieces — a 24-hour process at 1000°C — so that your creations can be collected within one to two weeks, ready to brighten your everyday life!

To participate in this workshop, please wear comfortable clothing suitable for the activities and for cleaning up afterwards (such as leggings or trousers). It is also recommended to have short nails and to tie back long hair. Finally, if possible, please bring your own apron.
