At 24hr Pottery we love offering workshops that help us all grow as artists (Yes! EVERYONE is an artist!) The below workshops are crafted for artists just beginning their exploration with clay, no prior experience is needed to join in on the fun and get your hands dirty!
We keep all workshops small with a max of 10 students ensuring each student attending has an opportunity for individual guidance.
At the end of class, choose from a selection of studio glaze colors and our team will glaze your pieces so they are ready for you to pick up three weeks after class!
(Alternatively – members are welcome to glaze their own pieces using their studio hours)
*Students must be 9 years or older to use the pottery wheels & have a participating (ticketed) adult accompanying children ages 9-14.
