Hot Fox Pottery
Hot Fox is a small, high-quality pottery studio in Brighton.
Make ceramic art you can be proud of in our warm & friendly home.
Why choose us?
(Because we're lovely of course!)
Hot Fox Pottery is run by Alice and Tom Fox from our home studio in Brighton.
We are small and friendly, with a warm and homely studio in our converted loft space. Our size means we'll know your name, and we'll really care about your pots! (And you might meet our sweet cats Alan & Dodo too!)
A relaxed, comfortable atmosphere and our extensive knowledge of pottery is what sets us apart. No strip lights, no cold, impersonal industrial units - you're just in our house, being taught by the people who run the business. (Plus there is the added bonus of free parking!)
In our cosy studio, you can take some time away from screens and outside pressures to focus on something mindful, fulfilling and creative. We know you'll leave feeling relaxed and happy.
All our classes are run in small groups, so our students get lots of individual attention, whether you’re a beginner or a more experienced potter. We really care about sharing our knowledge and helping you to develop your skills to make ceramic pieces that you’re proud of.
We use high-end stoneware clay and we don't compromise our standards, for us or for you!
We think by choosing us you'll end up being able to stretch yourself more, and try out more techniques than if you went somewhere bigger. We have a massive range of wonderful glazes, and will help you get the look you want.
To see what our students create, and why we're so proud of them, take a look at our student work gallery.
Here's what our course students say:
"Pottery is a place to go as well as a thing to do, if that makes sense. Everything a potter might need, and sound advice, well explained on hand from Tom and Alice when you want it. The people are what makes this place different."
Michelle
"Alice and Tom have created a really welcoming homely environment and it’s a very relaxed atmosphere in the studio. Learnt a great amount in six weeks and I’m chuffed with how many pieces I came away with."
Greg
"Alice & Tom are really genuine people and fantastic teachers who give you the confidence, skills and knowledge to bring your ideas to life in the form of MUD!"
