Holiday Menorah Pottery Workshop – Richmond Studio, Toronto
Celebrate the season with our festive holiday pottery workshop in Toronto. In this 3-hour handbuilding class, you will create your own clay menorah using beginner-friendly techniques such as pinching, coiling, and slab-building. Guided by our expert instructors, you will craft a unique ceramic holiday centerpiece to cherish for years to come.
No experience is needed and all skill levels are welcome. The class begins with a guided demo, followed by plenty of hands-on support to help you add personal details and creative touches to your menorah.
Your handmade menorah will go through the full ceramic process, drying, bisque firing, glazing, and a final kiln firing — and will be ready for pickup in approximately three weeks, just in time for the holidays.
Join us at our Toronto pottery studio for a cozy and creative way to celebrate the holidays with handmade ceramics.

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.
