Our pottery classes build beginner skills to create functional everyday hand-built or hand-thrown pottery, with an emphasis on learning the “life of clay” and the endless possibilities inherent in clay. Discover the joy of the pottery wheel, hand-crafting unique pieces, working with glazes, and having your work fired in our pottery studio.
