4 days: Learn Ceramics from a Slovenian Master Potter
Learn from Katja, a ceramic product designer who makes products for different occasions - home accessories, lighting and everyday objects. Her work is functional in origin whilst being playful and thoughtful.
Her personalized 1:1 studio sessions are tailored to your skill level, interests, and goals. No prior art experience is required, making this inclusive for families, children, the elderly, and those with special needs.
This dedicated time is all about you, as Katja will guide you through the entire process, allowing you to learn at your own pace, grow, connect meaningfully with a master, and even discover a new part of the world. In your free time, you’ll have plenty of time to explore Lake Bled or hike in the stunning surrounding forest.
