Itinerary
We will first do a tour of the studio and gallery, looking at kinds of pottery, visiting the kilns and learning about the process. We do a quick "demo" of pottery throwing. Then visitors don aprons, sit down at their wheels, and (with lots of hands-on help) begin making pots! Everyone should be able to make 4 or 5 pieces.
For safety purposes, all of our workshops are now PRIVATE for each group. Your group may be one person or 8, but you will not share the classroom with any other students.

I shared a weekend away with my three daughters and this was one of the surprises I’d planned. The girls were excited when we showed up for the class. We had a great time, learned a lot, and can’t wait to pick up our finished pieces. We also gained a new appreciation for pottery and the artists who create it. Thanks for some great memories!

The entire experience was incredible! My husband and I enjoyed the tour first, then the demonstration that Esteban gave was both helpful and engaging! We highly recommend this place!

There were only two of us in the class so it was much more hands on and detailed than it would be in a full class. The instructor was patient and professional.

I had an amazing first time pottery experience and was so happy I got to make some pieces myself! The instructors helped us center the clay, shape the pieces, and remove it from the wheel with as much or as little help as we wanted. The pieces were ready to be glazed a few weeks after the first visit, and ready to be picked up a few days after that. There was a $15 fee for each finished piece. We went back in person to glaze ourselves but they can also glaze it for you if you are not local. It was so fun and I definitely want to do more pottery throwing now :)

Outstanding teacher (Aaron) and really fun experience. Highly recommend even for very beginners. Studio tour was fun, especially learning about the whole process. Plenty of opportunity to make multiple pieces.

Great class for all levels - especially for beginners. The instructors were friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to help when needed. Fun to do alone or with a group. Highly recommend!

Loved our experience with rosemary! First time doing pottery but they went through the steps and helped correct our mistakes. We made so made pieces that we are going to glaze and the variety of glazed was amazing

The ceramics class was great fun and we learned a lot in a couple of hours. The instructors, Taylor and Esteban were really kind and helpful. It certainly stirred our interest in continuing in Ceramics.

I had a fantastic experience despite the fact that my clay flew off the wheel once and I made a complete mess a few times, I had a great instructor though! She made it a fun learning experience. I had several pieces and they turned out beautifully. This was my first play with clay experience and o appreciated the small class size. I definitely recommend a visit to play with clay or to buy attractive finished pieces which are available in an affordable price ranges.
