SEN Session - pottery painting

Service Description

At Dixie Dot Crafts we believe that creativity should be accessible to everyone — especially those who experience the world in wonderfully unique ways... which is why we’ve designed SEN pottery painting sessions — a space where they can create, explore, and express themselves freely, at their own pace. Why Pottery Painting? Pottery painting is a fun and sensory experience — the repetitiveness of the brush strokes and the the vibrant colours mean that it can help with emotional regulation because the activity itself is a calm one be a low-pressure way to develop or practice fine motor skills. create an outlet to express yourself without the need for words. But more than anything, it's creating something that is entirely unique— splashing colour onto a plate, mug, or figurine... whatever you choose. Created with SEN in mind These sessions are created to be: Quiet, low-sensory environment – no loud music or bright lights. Small group sizes to avoid overwhelming noise or crowds - we limit the amount of tables we fill. Flexible start and finish - you can use as much or as little of your session as you wish. HOW POTTERY PAINTING WORKS Book a table for you and your group online for a date that suits you. When you arrive you will be shown to your table and are able to take some time viewing the pottery to make your selections. (You may paint as much as you wish!) Visit the Paint Station to collect all your colours, stamps, stencils, sponges - anything you might need to create a masterpiece! After you have paid and we've waved you goodbye, we set about the glazing and firing process to seal in your design, making it super shiny, waterproof and weatherproof! You return to collect it as soon as its ready - as a rough guideline, this will take about a week. Enjoy your painted ceramics for decades to come!
