This Halloween, skip the messy pumpkin guts and carve your very own clay pumpkin lantern!

In this class, you’ll shape a hollow clay pumpkin, then carve fun faces, patterns, and spooky designs right into the clay. Our team will harden the outside of the clay first, giving you that perfect “carve-ready” surface—just like a pumpkin.

This activity is perfect for large groups, families, or anyone who has never played with clay and just wants to try something new and fun this Halloween season.
