Build something with us!

These classes focus on shaping by hand rather than the wheel, with no set project to follow.

You’ll learn the fundamentals and then have the space to create something of your own. Whether you come in with an idea or figure it out as you go, we’ll guide you through the process.

It’s slower, more open, and gives you room to explore. Relaxed, creative, and beginner-friendly.

Build Your Own Design

Bring your idea, we’ll help you make it.

These sessions are more open-ended and guided by you. Whether you want to create a mug, planter, platter, or something completely your own, we’ll walk you through the techniques to bring it to life.

You’ll learn hand-building methods like slab and pinch while working at your own pace, with support along the way.

Any class starting after 4pm is BYOB. Guests 21+ may bring beverages in accordance with our BYOB policy.

Great for:

  • First-timers who want flexibility

  • Creative projects that don’t fit a template

  • People who want something personal

No experience needed. All materials included. Finished pieces ready in 4 weeks, you will receive an email when your items are ready for pickup.
