In order to prep supplies, PLEASE NO “SAME DAY” REGISTRATIONS! Same day registrations will automatically be moved to the next scheduled class date.
Do I need to have any experience?
Not at all. During the class, you'll receive personalized instruction tailored to your skill level. If you've never touched clay before in your life, when you sign up for any of our classes, you’ll learn the basic techniques with the simple joy of building something with your own two hands.
We are committed to providing you with the best possible experience. Before registering, please inform us of any accommodations you may need to facilitate your access or use of the pottery wheel.
