PRIVATE WORKSHOPS
Get your hands in clay and your creativity flowing in a private workshop made just for you and your group. Whether you're celebrating something or just want to try something new, we’ll guide you through the basics in a relaxed, welcoming space. No experience needed, all ages welcome.
HANDBUILDING Workshop
We will walk you through how to make a project of your choice using handbuilding techniques. Some project options are mugs, planters, incense holders, or wall shelves. If there’s another project you have in mind we are open to suggestions. At the end of the class, you’ll choose your glaze colors. We will fire and glaze your pieces for you, and let you know when they're ready for pickup, typically around 4-6 weeks. We can also ship the finished projects for an additional fee.

WHEELTHROWING Workshop
We will provide a demo of how to throw using the potter's wheel, and then you will get time to try it out! Each participant will receive 6 balls of clay to practice with. We will provide individual assistance to make sure each person gets at least 2 pieces by the end of the class. At the end of the class, each participant will choose up to 3 of their favorite pieces to keep, and select their glaze colors. We will take care of cleaning up the bottom of each piece, as well as firing and glazing your creations. You’ll receive an email when your pottery is ready for pickup, typically around 4-6 weeks. We can also ship the finished projects for an additional fee.

DECORATE YOUR OWN Workshop
Each participant will get either 1 mug, 1 travel cup, or 2 small plates (all made by us, with love) to decorate using our selection of 14 underglazes. The design is completely up to you! We may need up to 3 weeks' notice to plan this type of workshop so we have time to make the pieces in advance. After the workshop, we will put a clear glaze on your pieces and fire them for you. They will be ready for pickup within 2-3 weeks.
