Pottery Classes

Single Project Class

Perfect for beginners or anyone who wants to make something great without committing to a full class. In this guided, two-session experience, you’ll choose a project—such as a mug, bowl, vase, or small sculpture—and I’ll walk you through each step to ensure it turns out beautifully.This class focuses less on in-depth pottery education and more on hands-on help, so your piece has the best chance of success. I’ll assist with shaping, techniques, structure, and finishing so you can relax, create, and enjoy the process.

$34 per project up to 3/4 lb.
$44 per project 1-2lbs.

Includes two sessions, clay, wheels, tools, glaze, 2 firings and personalized instruction!

Session 1: Create your piece
Session 2: Return to glaze after the first firing

Beginner Pottery Classes

Start your clay journey with a hands-on introduction to the fundamental skills every potter needs. In this beginner-friendly class, you’ll learn how to hand-build using the classic pinch, coil, and slab techniques, as well as how to score and slipfor strong, lasting connections. You’ll also get time on the pottery wheel, learning how to center clay, form basic shapes, and use essential clay tools with confidence.As you progress, you’ll explore timing, drying stages, and trimming, gaining an understanding of how to work with clay from start to finish.You’re free to create any project you’d like, though beginners are encouraged to avoid plates (they love to crack!). Whether you choose a mug, bowl, vase, sculpture, or something completely your own, you’ll be supported every step of the way.This class is the first step on the road to becoming an independent, experienced potter—building skills, creativity, and confidence with every session.

Notes:

Note: The projects you will make will be high fire clay which is dishwasher safe and able to be used in the microwave, and oven up to 500 degrees F.
Another Note: All kids must be accompanied by an adult who will have to sign a liability waiver.
Yet Another Note: throwing pottery on the wheel is a very safe and fun activity, but the wheel head moves. We use safe tools to work with the clay, with the only sharp object being a small needle.
