    Not what it says! But ok otherwise

    While the experience is good, the description is highly inaccurate. We were not offered any refreshments. Only one of us was given the opportunity for hands on pottery experience. Secondly that person was not offered to take home what was made. Disappointed in that respect as we paid for 5 people. Also you are encouraged almost immediately to buy from their shop. I will say Majeed was very nice and gave a great history lesson. But we didn’t go for that alone.

    Response from Host, Aug 2023

    Thank you so much for your feedback. You mentioned a few things, which I would like to clarify, 1st this is an art centre, and there is always tea and coffee available. 2ndly we don't say no to others if they want to try, someone gives you history and info about making and then demonstrates it for you, once done we ask our guests if they want to try and if anyone wants to try they can. 3rdly, the pot you just made from clay needs to dry for days to move it from one place to another without damaging it. even thing if someone says I would like to take it, they can , last, once it is done we show our guests the next stages, how it starts from clay and becomes an art. we also show the guests samples and designs and if they want they can purchase as well. But once again I will keep your feedback in my mind for future guests. Thank you.
