Class Description

Description

Join us for unique and engaging hands-on pottery classes where you will create original pieces, take a well-deserved break from work, and have genuine fun with family and friends together. With patient guidance from skilled and experienced instructors, you will feel comfortable and confident as you engage in this enjoyable and rewarding creative art form. Learn every step in the comprehensive pottery process: from skillfully shaping raw clay to creating a finished, beautifully glazed ceramic piece. Choose between a hand-building session or a wheel-throwing lesson to create your own distinctive decorative white clay piece, which will be professionally fired and ready for you to take home and display.

Beginners are warmly welcome. No prior experience is required to try pottery at our welcoming studios. These classes represent a fantastic and accessible way to get an introduction into pottery, whether you are seeking a new hobby, searching for a thoughtful gift for a craft enthusiast, or simply want to spend your day being creatively productive and fulfilled.

Over the course of two hours, you will craft a unique clay item such as a mug, decorative bowl, vase, decorative plate, candle holder, or other forms, depending on the complexity of your design vision. Choose from our collection of design samples or bring your own imagination to life; we do not limit ideas or creativity. The focus is on enjoying creativity and the process itself, so there is no need to worry about making everything absolutely perfect. Instead, embrace the entire creative journey and actively develop new artistic skills and confidence. Everything you create can be used and enjoyed at home.

What to Expect During Your Class:

  • A comprehensive hands-on introduction to pottery techniques and methods
  • A handmade decorative clay piece to keep and treasure after professional firing
  • Two hours of genuine creativity in an interesting, relaxing, and inspiring studio environment

What You Should Bring:

Simply bring yourself, a positive and open attitude, and eagerness to test your abilities and explore your creativity. Our pricing includes all materials, professional firing, and custom glazing options.

    I had an amazing experience at this class. Kaitlyn was so informative and helped me create a bowl. Would definitely recommend
  • Wheel Throwing and Hand Building - Turtle Bay (Midtown East)

    It was a nice class. Chloe did a good job. Course Horse did not clarify that it would be extra to paint the pieces I made. Also, Coursehorse said I would choose to either throw on a wheel or sculpt, but we did both. And it wasn't clarified that it would take 3-5 weeks before I could pick up my pieces, causing me to have to go back. I would have liked a bit more inspiration ideas. I had a hard time thinking what to sculpt.
