About this Event
Private Lessons & Small, Fun Classes!
Get your hands muddy and dive into the magic of the pottery wheel! In this 1.5-hour lesson, you’ll learn the basics of wheel throwing and make your very own piece—a cup, a bowl, or some other funky little thing (you never know what it’ll become, and that’s part of the fun!).
No experience? No worries. These classes are super small, so you’ll get plenty of one-on-one guidance and wheel time. Come solo or bring a couple of pals for a muddy good time. You’ll walk away with clay-covered hands, good vibes, and one piece you get to keep and cherish forever.
All materials included. Suggest bringing a towel or apron but all clay washes out of clothing!

Class Breakdown
Host: Alexandra Thieneman
Info: We’ll kick things off with a fun, step-by-step demo where your instructor shows you how to turn a lump of clay into something fabulous—think bowls, cups, or whatever shape your squishy heart desires.
Then it’s your turn to hop on the wheel and get your hands dirty. We’ll guide you through the whole process while you play, explore, and maybe even surprise yourself.
At the end of class, you’ll pick one favorite piece to keep—your new wobbly treasure! We’ll glaze and fire it for you.
Feeling extra proud? You can keep additional pieces for $15 each.
