Class prices and schedule
Every class price below includes clay, tools, a house glaze and both kiln firings. The only extras are the booking fee added at checkout and Paint Your Own Pottery, an optional $19 add-on you can choose when you book through Peek (Eventbrite tickets can’t include it) or pick up during most classes. Every class is booked in advance and we do not take drop-ins, so reserve your seat before you come. Finished pottery takes about 30 days to dry and fire, and you collect it from the studio. Which classes run in a given month changes with the season and with instructor availability, so the calendar above is what is open right now. A class that is not listed this month has not been discontinued — call us and we will tell you when it is next scheduled.
