Sushi & Clay Experience: Sushi Rolling and Painting Ceramic Set
Please select a date to see available instructors and time slots.
Please be sure to review our Studio and Breakage Policy before attending your class.
Food and ceramics have always belonged together.
Before meals were rushed, they were rituals. Before plates were mass-produced, they were shaped by hand. Sushi invites you to slow down and savour each bite, while ceramics are made to be used, revisited, and shared. This collaboration brings those traditions together in one immersive, thoughtfully curated experience.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
-
2 handmade soy sauce dishes
-
2 sculptural chopstick holders (one set for two)

A guided sushi-making workshop to enjoy—and eat

PAINT YOUR OWN SUSHI CERAMICS

You’ll select from a curated collection of handmade ceramic pieces crafted in-house by our artists and paint:

2 soy sauce dishes

2 sculptural chopstick holders
Additional pieces will be available for purchase on the day, including sushi plates, bowls, rice figurines, and decorative pieces.
Using professional underglaze paints, you’ll decorate your ceramics in a relaxed, beginner-friendly environment. Once complete, your pieces will be clear glazed and kiln-fired by our team, making them food safe, microwave safe, and dishwasher friendly. Finished pieces will be ready for pickup approximately three weeks after the workshop.
