Every piece you create at our Chennai pop-ups is professionally dried, kiln-fired at our base studio, and safely couriered to your doorstep. Chennai has truly become our second home. Whether we are hosting a session in Adyar, Besant Nagar, or Anna Nagar, the warmth we receive keeps us coming back. Our workshops are less about technical perfection and more about taking a few hours to step away from the city's noise. ### How Our Workshops Work We keep our sessions relaxed and accessible, regardless of your skill level. * **The One-Day Pop-Up:** Perfect for a weekend creative fix. In these 3-hour sessions, we guide you through the basics of handbuilding and wheel throwing. It is an ideal way to see if clay is your new hobby without a major commitment. * **The 5-Day Intensive Camp:** For those who want to dive deeper. These camps are structured to take you through the entire process—from preparing raw clay and centering on the wheel to surface decoration and glazing. You will leave with a fuller collection of pieces and a stronger understanding of the craft. ### Why We Travel I started this because I believe pottery is a form of therapy. We bring everything needed: the portable electric wheels, the clay, the tools, and the aprons. You do not need to bring anything but yourself. We focus on creating a 'third space' in the city—a place that is not work, not home, but a spot where you can just be. The pieces you make are not just objects; they are tangible memories of a slow afternoon spent connecting with others. ## About The Janbo I am Madhumita, and The Janbo is my heart. I started this journey to share the slow, healing magic of clay that helped me navigate my own path. These workshops are my way of creating a small, quiet space for you to breathe and create.
