Mother's Day Vase or Planter
Who? Teens 11+ and adults – all levels. Because of Mother's Day, we lowered the age to 11! :)
3-hour class - multiple times offered
Great for friends and families looking for a special experience to share with Mom. On select dates, all moms get a free gift!
You will create a decorated planter or vase, just in time for spring planting or flowers! Choose your planter size (2 small herb planters or one 6" planter) or create a taller vase. Add your own personal style with texture rollers or stamps! You will choose a glaze color from our wide selection and pick up your piece after we fire and glaze it in about 4 weeks.
Try the Potter's Wheel
Teens 13+ and adults – all levels
3-hour workshop with 5 balls of clay – multiple times offered
Great for novices, dates, and friends' night out!
Have you ever wanted to try the potter's wheel? We've created a fun, 3-hour workshop just for you! You'll get instruction and hands-on practice with 5 pieces of clay for the steps to center, open, throw on the wheel, and clean up (gotta experience the whole process, right?). Most people create a piece or two, but everyone can claim they tried it! Come back in 4 weeks to pick up your fired glazed piece(s).
These book up well in advance, so keep checking! We're always adding more!
We will do our best to get your pieces through the two firings. However, the process can be hard on pieces, and not everything comes out. It's the experience that matters, not perfection.
