About this Event

Passing out candy will be even more fun when you use your own customized bowl. This 3-hour instructor led class will cover the basics of hand-building with slabs of clay. With all materials included, participants can expect to make 1 large bowl which they can decorate then choose a color for, so staff may glaze it. This is a great class for those wanting to try their hand in making clay objects or rediscover a past passion for clay.  Finished pieces will be ready for trick-or-treater’s delights or your next vampire party punch 2-3 weeks after the class, though we will aim to finish them before Halloween!


Get ready for 3 full hours of creative fun with clay!

In this 10-part pop-up series, adults and teens 12 years and up, of any skill level, are invited to participate in one of our 3-hour, instructor-led classes covering the foundations of working with clay. Themed projects will vary from week to week and may be wheel or hand-building based. Students may enroll in one themed class at a time or may enroll in multiple individual classes. Completed projects are fired and glazed by staff with your choice of color and are usually ready for pick up in 2-3 weeks.
