You will not only have an opportunity to learn just about ceramic crockery covered with matchless patterns but you will also get to have a taste on vegetable and fruit smoothies from organic farms. These activities allow all MICE travellers to get hands-on learning and you can feel free to share your creativity wholeheartedly.
