Current Offerings

Date Night, $110 per couple

Do couples who play together stay together? We think so! Socialize with up to seven other couples while learning how to throw a bowl or a cup with your partner on the pottery wheel. We will glaze and fire your pieces, which will be ready within a month. Tickets are for this date only and are nonrefundable.

Clay Parties, $325+

We love parties! Birthdays, anniversaries, team building, or just a fun outing with friends — any reason will do. We offer handbuilding or wheel throwing experiences, making simple items you envision. Parties last up to two hours, and can accomodate up to 30 people. The studio finishes and glazes your work, which you pick up within about a month.
