Emo Day: Pottery Wheel Classes at The Pottery Shop

🖤 EMO SUNDAY: Adult “Try It” Pottery Wheel Experience 🖤
(Sad songs. Soft light. Spinning clay.)

Please Note Our New Location in Town Square!

We are on the north side of the mall, at our new temporary pop-up between Oozapalooza and Laser Away. You won’t see our old signage — but you’ll find us right between those two storefronts.

Trade brunch for throwback anthems.

Join us for Emo Sunday at The Pottery Shop — a beginner-friendly “Try It” pottery wheel experience set to your favorite early-2000s heartbreak hits. It’s slower, a little nostalgic, a little dramatic… and surprisingly therapeutic.

🖤 Coffee in hand
🎶 Dashboard-level vulnerability
👐 Clay spinning under your fingertips

No experience needed. Just show up ready to feel something (and get a little messy).

These sessions fill quickly — reserve your spot in advance.

• Your own wheel for 60 minutes
• Includes 3 (1-lb) balls of clay
• Firing of 1 piece* included
• $10 non-refundable deposit required to reserve (balance due in studio)

• Share one wheel for 60 minutes
• Includes 3 (1-lb) balls of clay
• Firing of 2 pieces* included
• $20 non-refundable deposit required to reserve (balance due in studio)

This experience is designed for beginners. We focus on walking you through the fundamentals — centering, pulling, and shaping your clay — in a relaxed, supportive setting.

Most first-time participants create smaller, simple pieces such as:
• A small bowl
• A small cylinder
• A small trinket dish

We do not guarantee you will make a fire-able piece*, but if your creation doesn’t survive, you may choose a finished piece as a keepsake from your session.

• Ceramics is an extremely unpredictable medium. We cannot guarantee pieces won’t crack during drying, bisque firing, or glaze firing.
• Clay shrinks approximately 15% from throwing to final firing.
• Class begins and ends at the published time and lasts approximately 60 minutes total, including instructor demo and your time on the wheel.
• If your piece survives the firing process, we will apply your chosen glaze and complete the final glaze firing.
• Turnaround time is approximately 4–6 weeks before your piece is ready for pick-up.
• If time permits, additional clay may be purchased for $5 per pound, and additional pieces may be glazed and fired for $15 each.

• Cash (no bills over $20)
• All major credit cards
• Apple Pay

• No cancellations or reschedules within 48 hours of class
• No credits or refunds for no-shows
• Ages 16+ only
• Everyone in the wheel area must be registered — no spectators
• No open-toed shoes
• Fingernails may get dirty or break
• Wear comfortable clothing that can get messy (no skirts/dresses/kilts)
• No loose jewelry or rings
• Long hair must be tied back

Because sometimes Sunday mornings are for reflection… and sometimes they’re for throwing clay while softly screaming along to songs you still know every word to.

Reserve your wheel for Emo Sunday. 🖤
