Join wildlife artist Liz McLelland and hop into the wonderful world of clay sculpting.

You’ll see your amphibious friend emerge over the course of three hours as you refine and add texture to your design. Liz will take your finished frog back to her home kiln to bisque (first) fire and then glaze and 2nd fire for you ready to collect around 6 weeks later.
