Mosaic Creations
 

2 hours mosaic course with experienced artists, for all levels of experience including beginners.
Come and learn the direct method of making a mosaic suitable for indoors or outdoors by laying tiles directly onto a durable surface.

You will learn:
•How to transform a design idea into a mosaic
•How to use mosaic making tools
•How to cut and lay mosaic tiles
•How to apply basic techniques.
•How to grout and clean your mosaic.

This course is suitable for mosaic novices or those wishing to extend their practice. You will complete a small mosaic (20cm x 20cm maximum) to take home.
It does not matter if you do not consider yourself 'arty', we can help you with any design and drawing required.

In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes.

Get ready to dive into the wildly enjoyable world of wheel-throwing pottery!

This session is perfect for beginners itching to unleash their inner artist. You'll learn the nitty-gritty of clay preparation, centering it on the wheel, tool preparation and the basics of making a small bowl!  No experience? No problem! Everyone's invited to join the pottery party!

This class includes all the tools and instruction needed to make a small bowl. It does not include a glazed and fired piece. This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes. If you would prefer, please feel free to bring your  own box to take your pieces home. We do have options for Bisque Fire, which is five dollars apiece. Or we can glaze your piece starting at $10 each.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

     

EACH PERSON ENTERING CLASS MUST HAVE OWN Ticket. EACH TICKET IS GOOD FOR one piece. Additional pieces to be painted are 15$ each.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes. If you would prefer, please feel free to bring your  own box to take your pieces home. We do have options for Bisque Fire, which is five dollars apiece. Or we can glaze your piece starting at $10 each.

Get ready to dive into the wildly enjoyable world of wheel-throwing pottery!

This session is perfect for beginners itching to unleash their inner artist. You'll learn the nitty-gritty of clay preparation, centering it on the wheel, tool preparation and the basics of making a small bowl!  No experience? No problem! Everyone's invited to join the pottery party!

This class includes all the tools and instruction needed to make a small bowl. It does not include a glazed and fired piece. This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes. If you would prefer, please feel free to bring your  own box to take your pieces home. We do have options for Bisque Fire, which is five dollars apiece.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

Get ready to dive into the wildly enjoyable world of wheel-throwing pottery!

This session is perfect for beginners itching to unleash their inner artist. You'll learn the nitty-gritty of clay preparation, centering it on the wheel, tool preparation and the basics of making a small bowl!  No experience? No problem! Everyone's invited to join the pottery party!

This class includes all the tools and instruction needed to make a small bowl. It does not include a glazed and fired piece. This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes. If you would prefer, please feel free to bring your  own box to take your pieces home. We do have options for Bisque Fire, which is five dollars apiece. Or we can glaze your piece starting at $10 each.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

     

EACH PERSON ENTERING CLASS MUST HAVE OWN Ticket. EACH TICKET IS GOOD FOR one piece. Additional pieces to be painted are 15$ each.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

     

EACH PERSON ENTERING CLASS MUST HAVE OWN Ticket. EACH TICKET IS GOOD FOR one piece. Additional pieces to be painted are 15$ each.

This class includes all the tools and instruction needed to make a small bowl. It does not include a glazed and fired piece. This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Get ready to dive into the wildly enjoyable world of wheel-throwing pottery!

This session is perfect for beginners itching to unleash their inner artist. You'll learn the nitty-gritty of clay preparation, centering it on the wheel, tool preparation and the basics of making a small bowl!  No experience? No problem! Everyone's invited to join the pottery party!

This class includes all the tools and instruction needed to make a small bowl. It does not include a glazed and fired piece. This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes. If you would prefer, please feel free to bring your  own box to take your pieces home. We do have options for Bisque Fire, which is five dollars apiece.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

     

EACH PERSON ENTERING CLASS MUST HAVE OWN Ticket. EACH TICKET IS GOOD FOR one piece. Additional pieces to be painted are 15$ each.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class. 
NO REFUND NO RESCHEDULING AFTER REGISTRATION!

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Get ready to dive into the wildly enjoyable world of wheel-throwing pottery!

This session is perfect for beginners itching to unleash their inner artist. You'll learn the nitty-gritty of clay preparation, centering it on the wheel, tool preparation and the basics of making a small bowl!  No experience? No problem! Everyone's invited to join the pottery party!

This class includes all the tools and instruction needed to make a small bowl. It does not include a glazed and fired piece. This class is meant to teach you a new skill and provides instruction and the tools to do as such. By the end of the session you MIGHT have a piece that is considered Greenware. Which means you cannot eat out of this piece and it will be fragile. You can take pieces home the same day if you make one and it can be a small decorative piece for memories sake. In order to make your pieces food-safe and durable, you can register for a second session, called "Paint Your Own Pottery". In this class you will learn about the kiln process, glazes, and how to customize the color and design of your pieces. The "Paint Your Own Pottery" session can be scheduled anytime after 3 days of this class. 

 

This class does not guarantee you will leave with a piece. We will make every effort to ensure that you leave with a piece, but it is not guaranteed. All customers will be told to take their pieces home. We will send you home with a paper plate and a paper bag if available We do not provided boxes. If you would prefer, please feel free to bring your  own box to take your pieces home. We do have options for Bisque Fire, which is five dollars apiece. Or we can glaze your piece starting at $10 each.

Paint Pottery-90 Minutes - BYOB
 
  • Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can choose your own bisque fired pieces from our selection to paint! With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all.

Pieces will be ready for pick up after three weeks of the painting date. We will then keep the glazed pieces on our shelves for 60 days. After 60 days they will be given away or recycled.
Please note that registration is a firm commitment to attend the class.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.

Paint Your Own Pottery - 90 Minutes 1 piece BYOB
 
  • NO GROUPONS


    Join our Pottery Painting and Glazing class where you can bring your own masterpieces to life! In this engaging and hands-on session, attendees will have the opportunity to paint and glaze their previously made pottery pieces. With a wide range of vibrant colors to choose from, you can truly let your creativity flow.

    During the class, you will learn the essential techniques of sanding and smoothing your pottery, ensuring a flawless finish. Our experienced instructors will guide you in layering colors and intricate designs over your pieces, allowing you to create unique and personalized works of art.

    One of the key benefits of glazing is that it not only enhances the visual appeal of your pottery but also makes it food-safe and permanent. After glazing, you will leave your pieces behind to be fired at a scorching 2000 degrees. This firing process transforms your artwork into microwave-safe, oven-safe, and completely food-safe pottery.

    Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your creative side, our Pottery Painting and Glazing class offers a fun and rewarding experience for all. Come and discover the joy of transforming your pottery into functional and beautiful pieces that you can cherish for years to come.
