Do I need to have any experience?
Not at all. If you've never touched clay before in your life, just sign up for any of our Beginner & Intermediate pottery classes and reconnect with the simple joy of building something with your own two hands.
​
All you'll need to start is an apron ($17), and a trimming tool ($10). You'll purchase these from us on your first day. All other tools are provided.
Which class is for me?
Our pottery classes are divided into two levels of experience: Beginner & Intermediate, and Intermediate Only.
​
Our Intermediate Only pottery classes are designed for the student who already has experience with ceramics and is wanting to learn new skills and try some more ambitious projects.
​
If you have a little bit of experience but feel that you need to practice your foundational skills, then we recommend joining a Beginner & Intermediate pottery class.
​
The pottery classes run once a week, for 6 weeks. We offer classes in the morning, afternoon, and evening, 7 days a week.​​
