About this Event


Try It! Beginner Wheel Throwing Class

Curious about the pottery wheel? This beginner-friendly class is the perfect way to dip your hands into clay! Whether it’s your first time or you’re brushing off old skills, you’ll get a guided, hands-on introduction to wheel throwing—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.



Instructor: Mel

Cost: $50 per person



Note: We need at least 5 students to run the class. If it’s canceled, you’ll receive a full refund.



Access Info:The PACA building doors are locked—call (814) 520-5089 when you arrive and we’ll buzz you in. Need the elevator? Let us know in advance at and we’ll meet you downstairs.
