Sculpt, Shape, and Build by Hand. 

Discover the art of handbuilding in this 2-hour pottery class — a tactile, meditative approach that invites you to slow down and connect with clay in its raw form.

Beginner-friendly and intentionally paced, this session teaches foundational techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab-building to help you shape your own functional or decorative ceramic piece. You'll start with a guided demo and receive hands-on support as you work intuitively at your own pace.

Perfect for anyone looking to unwind, explore, and create — no experience needed. Your finished piece will be bisque fired, coated in a clear glaze, and fired again to make it food-safe and dishwasher-friendly.
