Celebrate Valentine's Day with a creative twist at Dalston Clay's intimate portrait sculpting evening. Spend 2.5 hours getting lost in the details of your loved one's face as you sculpt their likeness in clay – a unique way to truly see and be seen. Led by Dalston Clay founder and ceramic artist Barnaby Hosking, this playful session begins with a brief demonstration before you dive into capturing each other in three dimensions. No experience needed – just curiosity, a sense of humour, and a willingness to look closely at the person across from you. ​ There's something wonderfully romantic about studying your partner's profile, the curve of their smile, or the way their eyes crinkle when they laugh. This isn't about creating a perfect replica – it's about the joy of making, learning something new together, and taking creative risks in a supportive environment. ​ What's Included: ​ Expert tuition from ceramic artist Barnaby Hosking All materials and tools Professional firing and glazing of your finished pieces BYOB – bring your favourite drinks to share Plenty of time to head out for dinner afterwards ​ Your sculpted portraits will be ready for collection one month after the session – a lasting memento of your Valentine's evening and the playful spirit you brought to it. ​ Perfect for couples who want to: ​ Try something completely different this Valentine's Learn a new creative skill together Unleash your inner artist (wonky noses welcome!) Have a laugh while making something meaningful Take home a handmade keepsake you actually made ​
