We're excited to have you in the studio! Whether you're trying pottery for the first time or returning after years away, our goal is to provide a safe, creative, and enjoyable experience for everyone.
WHAT TO WEAR & bring
Wear comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting a little dirty. Closed-toe shoes are required, long hair should be tied back, and short fingernails are recommended.
THE POTTERY PROCESS
Pottery is a skill that takes time and practice to develop. Focus on enjoying the experience and embracing the imperfections that make handmade work unique.

Please follow your instructor's guidance when using tools and equipment. If you're unsure about a process or technique, please ask for assistance! We're always happy to help.
share the space, enjoy the process
