Give it a try nights
To hear when give it a try nights go on sale hop on our email list!
Our give it a try nights are a chance for people who are interested in learning how to throw on the wheel to try it out. Because learning to throw takes time, students shouldn’t expect to leave this class having made a beautiful pot, but they should expect to leave with a basic understanding of the steps involved in throwing on the potters wheel, as well as an idea of if its something they would like to take a longer class learning!
The classes are on Friday nights from 6-8:30pm, and dates are announced for the classes on our instagram towards the end of each month. We typically run two give it a try nights per month.
Our give it a try nights cost $80/person.
If a student decides to keep a pot they made at the event they are welcome to do so for an additional $10, and we will glaze and fire it for them! (this cost we don’t include in the class as not everyone has a pot they’d like to keep).
please note that these classes are non-refundable so make sure you can make it!
Workshops
We hold workshops at the studio every few months! What we offer is always changing, but a few of our past favorites were our flower arranging and vase making workshop with The Story of Flowers, our live throwing workshops with Kazu Oba, and Fenway Clayworks.
Check back here to hear about upcoming ones as they roll in!
Handbuilding & flower arranging workshop with The Story of Flowers
In this two part workshop you’ll your create your own ceramic vase out of clay and create a flower arrangement of beautiful local flowers to fill it!
part one: On Saturday April 12th from 10am-12 you’ll learn the fundamentals of handbuilding and create your own unique vase! After the workshop we will fire and glaze your vase so that it is ready for you on April 26th.
part two: On Saturday April 26th from 10-noon come back to the studio and learn about floral arrangement from Whitney of The Story Of Flowers. With her help you’ll create a beautiful flower arrangement of local spring blooms to fill your handbuilt vase!
This workshop includes all clay, firings, and flowers. Just bring yourself!
We will have 5 different glaze choices for you to chose from for your vase, carefully selected so that they’ll match the flowers you’ll be using for your arrangement. The vases will be around 7” tall, and the arrangements around 7” high and 7” wide.
The workshop is $150 and includes both dates!
There will be two sessions of the workshop, both on April 12th & 26th:
