Join our Handbuilding & Pottery Painting Class in Toronto and learn how to create and decorate pottery by hand. This beginner-friendly pottery workshop is designed for anyone interested in working with clay in a relaxed and creative studio environment. No experience is required.
In this class, you will learn basic handbuilding techniques including pinching, coiling, and slab building. Our instructors will guide you through the process of shaping your own ceramic piece, such as a mug, bowl, plate, tray, or planter.
After building your piece, you will paint and decorate it using ceramic underglazes and pottery painting techniques. Add colour, patterns, textures, and personal details to create a finished piece that is completely unique.
What’s Included:
• Clay and pottery tools
• Step-by-step instruction from ceramic artists
• Pottery painting materials and underglazes
• Glazing and kiln firing
• One finished ceramic piece
Your pottery will be glazed, kiln-fired, and ready for pickup at a later date. Finished pieces are food-safe and functional.
This Toronto pottery class is ideal for beginners, date nights, team events, friends, tourists, and anyone looking for a creative hands-on activity in Toronto.
What to expect
- Expect to get a bit dirty with clay slip, but all materials used will wipe off with water, or come out in the laundry
- The last 20 minutes of the class will be dedicated to clean-up
Pick up
We glaze and fire all pieces after your workshop. All pottery will be available 3 weeks from the date of your class. We do not send reminder emails or pickup notifications.
