Pottery Classes -

Can’t handle the heat?! It’s okay summers are really hot in the glass studio and pottery is a great intro before diving into the heat of the glass. Our focus will be the potter’s wheel but we will cover other hand-building techniques in multi-week classes.

Rates start at $85 for a one-day class (2 hrs) and $250 for 4 multi-week sessions.

We offer fun, hands-on classes for individuals or small groups (1–4 people, we have 2 wheels!), including popular date night sessions!

  • One-day class (2 hrs) – perfect for trying out the pottery wheel or hand-building but don’t forget you might need to come back and glaze your pieces!

  • Multi-week courses – build your skills over time

  • Classes include clay, tools, kiln firings, and glazing

Easier scheduling and setup compared to glass. Message us directly to book a session that works with your schedule!
