Speckled Dog Studio

Creative art and craft experiences for curious young makers at Smithbrook Kilns in Cranleigh.

Speckled Dog Studios is a place where creativity comes first.

We nurture joy, confidence and wellbeing through playful art and craft experiences.

Our dedicated studio offers a welcoming space where children can explore, experiment, and connect while celebrating process over perfection.

What We Offer

Creative Classes: Regular Make & Create classes designed for primary-aged children to express their artistic side! Each session introduces new materials, ideas, and techniques while leaving plenty of room for imagination.

We run daytime home education sessions and after-school sessions for children aged 5-11 as well as shorter ‘Mini Makers’ sessions for under 8s (and their grown-ups!).

Clay Club: Monthly pottery sessions for children aged 7-15. Each month will feature an engaging clay project to learn and practice hand building techniques.

Pottery Painting: Come and take part in our regular pottery painting sessions, a fun and rewarding creative activity that the whole family can enjoy.

Birthday Parties: You can book an exclusive party session at our studio or hire a party kit so the making can happen wherever you choose.
