Wobage Workshops was established in 1977 by internationally renowned potters Mick Casson (1925 – 2003) and his wife Sheila (1930-2022)  Pottery courses were first established at Wobage during the 1980’s, by Mick and Sheila and their son-in-law Andrew McGarva. For several years, their two week Summer schools and shorter courses were extremely popular, attracting potters internationally.

The present-day line up of ceramics courses continue to attract amateur and professional potters, nationally & worldwide. The current workshops and evening classes are designed and led by Wobage potters Patia Davis and Jeremy Steward. Further collaboration, tuition and demonstration is occasionally furnished by the other resident Wobage makers, along with a selection of invited guest potters, artists and designers.

Each course is designed individually, revolving around specific areas of production and student creative development. Dual emphasis is focused upon developing skills alongside experimentation and strengthening individual expression. Regular tutorial demonstration features in each course, along with plentiful one-to-one assistance to help students to advance their key foundation skills.
