Iris & Dora – Community Arts & Crafts

Home Page

Welcome to Iris and Dora Studios, where people come first.

Our passion is fostering community and nurturing your creativity. We’ve been providing creative experiences for over a decade. We love what we do, we love our community, and we hope you’ll keep coming back for more.

We are fortunate to have so many talented makers, creators and artists on our tiny island. Here at Iris and Dora, we aim to support them as much as possible. Did you know that we exclusively stock locally made products in both of our shops? Everything you see on our shelves is locally produced and lets face it there’s nothing more sustainable than local.

Help us support these artisans and our community by buying local whenever you can.

Drop-In Pottery Painting

Drop-In Pottery Painting – No Booking Required!

We welcome drop-in pottery painters at both our locations! Whether you’re looking for a fun family activity, a creative solo outing, or a spontaneous get-together with friends, our studio is the perfect place to relax and get creative.

How It Works:
🎨 Choose Your Piece: Browse our wide selection of pottery items, including mugs, plates, bowls, and fun figurines. There’s something for everyone!

🖌️ Get Creative: We provide all the paints, brushes, and tools you need to design your masterpiece. Feel free to ask our friendly team for tips and techniques.

🔥 Leave It with Us: Once you’ve finished painting, we’ll glaze and fire your piece in our kiln to give it a beautiful, glossy finish.

📆 Collect Your Creation: Your pottery will be ready for collection in approximately two weeks.

No booking necessary (except maybe during rainy school holidays or weekends) – just drop in and enjoy some creative fun!
