Sip & Spin

Bring a drink, bring a friend, and get ready to make some muddy memories! Sip & Spin is our laid-back, BYOB pottery class where you’ll learn the basics of throwing clay on the wheel—no experience needed.

Our instructor will guide you through the process step-by-step, helping you center, shape, and (maybe) master your first pot. Expect a little mess, lots of laughs, and a creative night out that’s anything but ordinary.

You'll make 2- 3 pots with glaze options to personalize your creations. We'll handle the glazing and firing, and your finished work will be ready for pickup in 2–4 weeks.
