About Corris Craft Centre

Come along to the Corris Craft Centre and get creative.  Paint your own pottery in the Quarry Pottery studio! Choose your pottery and then use sponges, brushes, templates and paints to create your masterpiece. You don't need any artistic ability or great creative urges, just be willing to pick up a brush and be pleasantly surprised at what you're able to produce!

In The Candle Studio you can make a unique pair of candles; starting with 2 wicks build up the layers by dipping them into a range of hot coloured waxes (ages 5+).

Make and decorate your own bar of chocolate in the Chockablock studio and learn about the chocolate-making process.

We have been established over 40 years!

We are a part of Corris Caverns; a collection of 9 craft workshops, 2 underground experiences, an outdoor maze, great cafe and Welsh Deli.

Have fun making your own crafts in many of the Craft Workshops

Enjoy: Pottery Painting with a choice of ceramics, paints and stencils. Your finished artwork will be glazed and fired.

Pottery Throwing - there's 2 potter's wheels so you can throw with a friend with expert tuition from the talented ceramicists.

Chocolate Making - Create a unique bar of chocolate using high quality Belgian chocolate and a choice of toppings.

Make your own pair of Candles - Design your own pair of tapered candles with a choice of wax colours.

Furniture Building - Spend a day building your own piece of furniture working alongside master furniture builders.
