First Visit
Pottery Wheel Reservation
Take a break from the daily grind and immerse yourself in creativity on our Shimpo pottery wheels. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced potter, our open studio time is the perfect opportunity to work independently and continue your clay journey at your own pace.
During your session, you can place your work on our keep-wet cart to return for trimming at a later appointment. Firing is included with your reservation, and your pieces will be ready for the next stage 10 days after creation. Once your work is fired, simply reserve a glazing appointment to finish and bring your creations to life.
*Prior pottery wheel experience required
Available for students ages 9 – adult

Glazing Reservation
Be sure to reserve your glazing appointment 10 days after your initial session to allow time for the first firing. Once glazed, your pieces will go through the kiln one last time and be ready for pickup 10 days after your glazing appointment.
