IWM: Wine & Clay: A Night of Creativity & Community with Ria Desiree, at Kasama Studios

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S MARCH 2025
A whole month of events spotlighting conversations, connection, and conscious choices in honour of IWD.

We’re taking the conversation off-site this week to Kasama Studios, a small-batch ceramics and creative hub in the Newtown School of Arts heritage building. Founded in 2024 by Ria Desiree, a lawyer-turned-creative force to be reckoned with, Kasama Studios is more than just a pottery space - it’s an inclusive environment built on the same values of connection and empowerment that drive Famelia.

Experience learning how to make pottery using basic hand-building skills (pottery without a wheel!) at a beautifully curated private artist studio space in Newtown on Gadigal Land.

Workshop includes:

- Guided handbuilding session (2hrs)
- Clay plus firing & glazing of one (1) work
- Use of apron and pottery tools
- 4 half-glasses of women-made wine
- Grazing table

This hands-on evening is beginner friendly and blends art, wine, and conversation, offering both a guided hand-building clay session and a thought-provoking discussion on this year's International Women’s Day’s theme, Accelerate Action.

DATE: Tuesday 11th March
TIME: 6.30pm - 8.30pm
LOCATION: Kasama Studios - Newtown School of Arts - 5 Eliza Street, Newtown | Gadigal Land

Please note each ceramic work will be carefully hand wrapped and made available for collection approximately 6 weeks after the workshop date.

What our customers had to say

Famelia is a great and welcoming space, all about empowering women in business. Amelia is very knowledgeable and goes out of her way to share her knowledge and love for wine.

I love everything Famelia stands for - empowering, amplifying and supporting women who are underrepresented, significantly in the wine industry. Loved the GenZ wine tasting with Amelia even more. It was informative, engaging and so special. Shoutout to Amelia for being so wonderful!

A friend and I attended one of the events held here - An Intro to Natural Wines - and WOW. Amelia was our teacher for the night and went above and beyond, really taking her time with our group to teach us about the natural wines. The selections were delicious and we learnt so much. Can't wait to come back and support!

I went to an event put on by Famelia and Amelia was so knowledgeable, but still made everything feel really accessible! Such a lovely experience.
