Holiday Gingerbread House Pottery Workshop – Dundas Studio, Toronto
Get into the holiday spirit with our festive pottery workshop in Toronto! In this 3-hour handbuilding class, you’ll create your own clay gingerbread house using beginner-friendly pottery techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab-building. Guided step by step by our experienced instructors, you’ll design a one-of-a-kind ceramic holiday centerpiece that lasts for years to come.
No pottery experience is needed, and all levels are welcome. We’ll start with a guided demo, then you’ll have plenty of time and support to craft your gingerbread house with personalized details, textures, and charm.
Explore Our First Floor Holiday Market in Toronto
Get exclusive access to our local artisan holiday market, featuring handmade pottery, gifts, and festive treats. Shop local artisans and community partners while finding unique, handcrafted holiday items and cozy snacks — perfect for everyone on your list.
Important Note: To have your ornaments ready in time for Christmas, you must attend a workshop before December 1. The process takes about 3 weeks as your ornaments will be glazed and kiln-fired after painting.
Each piece will be finished with a clear glaze and kiln-fired, leaving you with durable, food-safe ceramics to enjoy for years, or share as meaningful, handmade holiday gifts.
