About this Experience
What you'll do:
Bring your next birthday party, bachelorette, work outing, or family outing to our pottery wheel class at our studio! Spend your time getting messy on the pottery wheel, learn from our helpful instructor, and see what small ceramics you can make. This event is great for beginners or folks with no clay experience at all! Using a pottery wheel is perfect for anyone over the age of 9. Pottery takes a good bit of muscle and focus, so keep that in mind!
The class is divided into three parts:
Guests will make up to two pieces on the pottery wheel, following a demonstration.
While your clay is drying, there will be time for a quick snack break or just socializing (with whatever snacks or cakes you choose to provide).
After that, guests will glaze their pottery and get it ready for the kiln.
Why we love it for your party:
A creative, hands-on activity everyone can enjoy—no experience needed!
Two hours of laughter and memories in a relaxed studio setting
Great for kids and adults—everyone leaves feeling proud of what they made
A unique bonding experience that goes beyond the usual dinner or drinks
Your handmade pieces will be fired and finished for you so you'll have a lasting memory of your event!
Our instructors guide you step by step, so you can focus on having fun

Long nails are NOT recommended, your pretty nails will survive the process, but it will make each step harder for you.
