Colour My Pot's Fill Mum’s Cup event is a hands-on pottery morning in Cleveland, Queensland, at 6/39 Middle St, Cleveland QLD 4163. On Sunday 10 May 2026 the studio hosts three sessions—10am, 12pm and 2pm—inviting makers of every age to paint a gift and support Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea. For a $20 studio fee (which includes a $5 donation to Cancer Council Australia) you’ll get paints, brushes and tools plus glazing and firing; the pottery you choose on the day is purchased separately. The studio itself is an active creative room with drying racks, a glazing bench and an electric kiln that will transform your painted piece into a durable keepsake. Key features of the experience are the communal tea service, relaxed table setups, and step-by-step guidance from studio staff (operator name not provided). This event sits a short walk from the Raby Bay foreshore and Moreton Bay, so you can pair a pottery session with a harbor-side stroll before or after painting. The nearby shoreline and mangroves are a distinct local backdrop—expect shorebirds and bay light that make for lively conversation and inspiration. Colour My Pot stands out in the local recreation scene by blending craft, charity and community in a compact, approachable format. It’s not a workshop for seasoned throwers; rather, the emphasis is on accessible creativity: picking a piece, choosing colors, and creating a personalized gift while contributing to cancer research. The studio’s kiln and glazing service mean you won’t worry about finishing or firing at home; the staff handle the technical end so your finished mug or plate arrives hard and glossy. Plan to arrive a few minutes early to choose pottery, enjoy tea, and settle into a shared table where conversations range from paint techniques to local recommendations. The group size caps at 48 people across sessions, keeping the atmosphere friendly rather than crowded. Practical notes: pottery costs are additional, BYO alcohol is not permitted, and glazing/firing is included in the studio fee. If you need more detail on pickup times for fired pieces or accessibility accommodations, contact the studio directly—those specifics aren’t listed here. Whether you’re looking for a hands-on Mother’s Day surprise, a low-pressure creative morning, or a way to give back locally, this event blends technique, social time and purpose in a tidy two-hour session that highlights Cleveland’s coastal charm and community spirit. Bring a camera to document glazed colors and hands-on moments; close-ups of wet paint look striking. Weekend parking near 6/39 Middle St can fill quickly—allow extra time and consider combining your visit with a coffee at a nearby cafe on the foreshore. Staff will advise when finished pieces are ready for pickup after firing. Take home a handmade gift.
