At the end of the activity, you will choose the colour of your bowl, and we will invite you to a drink. This workshop includes a gift made of ceramics.
The workshop will be held in English or Spanish. Anna, the ceramist, has studied ceramics in Osaka and will guide you through the whole process, no previous experience is necessary.
