Our classes cover the basics of wheel-throwing to get you comfortable with the potter's wheel and teach you how to use essential tools.
They are a fun way to spend time with friends and family and make an excellent date night adventure!
$35 per person for the class time and instruction
+$15 per wheel pot you want to return to paint
Our wheel throwing classes are around an hour long with the last 10-15 minutes of class being devoted to cleaning up your wheel and taking photos of your work. You'll want to arrive ~10 minutes before the start of class to get settled in. Feel free to bring a washcloth or small hand towel for your lap and wear comfy clothes that you are not afraid to get a little easy to wash off clay on! Any of the pottery wheel creations you pick to return and paint will be ready for you in 3-5 weeks.
The classroom is only for paid students who have booked online.
Sorry, there are no walk-in spots available for wheel classes.

Class fees are non-refundable
