The Clay Club - Kids Classes with Isa Crovetto 

August 2025 Intake: 
Very sadly due to lack of interest and poor marketing timing on our part, we were not able to launch this Summer’s Kids Club.  

We remain committed to giving our young community the opportunity to experience the immersive joy of clay so please stay connected if you have a young person that’s interested. 

We are aiming to launch a series of fun and engaging autumn and winter weekend masterclasses for kids, if you are interested in joining a specific mailing list for these classes then please let me know here.


About Isa 
After being introduced to clay at college, Isa spent the following years working in a primary school as a 1:1 teaching assistant, where she ran many art clubs with the children and found a love for passing on the joy of art! Now, she spends her time as a ceramicist at The Clay Loft where she is a Full Time Super Member and the studio Technician/Manager. 

Future Classes
Future classes for kids at The Clay Loft will be demand led so PLEASE do keep in touch and let us know that you're keen.
