Whatever you like to serve, we can help make the dish to serve it on.

June 21

Pie pans Bread pans Casserole dishes

Form and function this week. Baking dishes like pie pans, bread pans, casserole dishes can be both beautiful and tough. Our pottery goes through more than 24 total hours of firing to over 2000 degrees, so yes - you can use it in your oven at 425! With the same consideration as glass dishes - drastic temperature changes can cause them to crack so they can’t go straight from the oven to the cold water in the sink.

Drop in Hand-building

Sunday afternoons are now for hand-built pottery projects! We will be open from 1 pm to 5 pm most Sunday afternoons. Everyone is welcome to stop in and create something. No experience needed and all supplies included. Instructors will be available to show you the basics. If you know what you want to make and how to do it - then we will just make sure you have want you need. If you have no idea what to make, we will give you some ideas.

$20 per person

Once complete, your project will need to dry and be fired to bisque before glazing. We will take care of that so you can glaze it, usually within two weeks depending on drying time. Then we will fire it to complete and you can pick it up at your leisure.

No need to sign up ahead of time…. although please let us know if you are coming with a group so we can make sure to have enough space.

Need more help?

If you’re looking for a more structured option call to schedule a 1-on-1 hand building session with an instructor! This is a two-hour session with dedicated instruction in hand-buidling techniques or to create a specific project. All supplies included. Groups up to 18 can be accommodated.

Depending on the complexity of your project - you will likely be able to make at least two or three pieces. Finished pieces will be ready to pick up in 2 - 3 weeks.

$30 per person

Optionally, you can sign up for this session, and then plan to come back to do your own finishing and glazing. Finishing and glazing sessions are 1 hour each and are an additional $10 each. Follow up classes will be scheduled separately as the timing depends on drying time for the clay when we fire the kiln.
