About this Event

Let your creativity take root! Join us for a beginner-friendly clay class where you’ll handbuild your own plant pot, vase, or quirky planter pal—no experience needed!

You’ll learn pinch pot and coil techniques with step-by-step guidance from our expert instructor. Expect a chill, joy-filled evening of creativity, clay, and a little friendly competition (yes, there’s optional pottery trivia with prizes!).

You'll leave with 1–3 sculpted pieces made entirely by you to enjoy or to gift!

Each ticket includes:

  • Pottery 101: 2 hours of hands-on pottery fun, learning pinch pots, coils, and how to turn them into amazing creations likw plant pots, vases, or custom planter pals!
  • Materials: All clay, tools, and materials are provided at the workshop
  • Take Home: Make and take home up to 3 pieces of cute (and maybe a bit wonky) pottery
  • No Kiln Needed: Option to air dry and paint your pieces at home for decorative pieces (white paint + paintbrush included) OR upgrade to ceramic pieces with the add-on, which includes glazing (in white or clear) and firing of up to 2 creations to make them waterproof and food-safe. Your ceramic ticket will also include shipping of your finished pottery to you in 6-8 weeks.
  • Trivia: Fun pottery trivia with prizes from small businesses (because who doesn’t love a little friendly competition and learning something new?!)
  • Good vibes & a fun time with nice humansThis is the perfect way to spend a couple of hours with friends or make new ones, all while creating something you can actually use.

Sign up now, and make memories - and pottery - that’ll last a lifetime!

Note: While we take every precaution, pottery is an art form and sometimes pieces can break or crack during drying and firing. We cannot be held responsible for any damage or loss that may occur during the process. Thank you for your understanding and support.
