A marketplace stall displaying an array of colorful and traditional pottery items, including vases, jugs, and lamps, arranged neatly on the ground and shelves. The pottery features intricate designs and varies in color from terracotta to bright blues and pinks, under an arcade structure with arches.

Girls’ Charcuterie Night

Gather your friends for a fun and artistic girls’ night out. Your party will include provided appetizers, BYOB or whatever you prefer to drink. Each participant will create a slab work charcuterie board that they design theirself. Pieces will be fired and ready to be picked up 7 days later.

A variety of clay pots, mugs, and bowls are arranged on the floor. The ceramics are primarily in shades of brown and beige, with a few black items. Several people stand nearby, with only their shoes visible, indicating the setting is likely a market or exhibition.

Youth Programs

Inspire creativity in kids with our engaging youth pottery programs. While shaping the clay, children will need to carefully think about their actions – what do I want to make, what shape do I want, what size should my dog be – and so on.
It challenges them think about and plan what they want to do to their creations. The physical actions of pottery will use your childs hands which allows for finer motor control and focus on minute details of their project.
Over time, working with clay gives children hand-eye coordination and will develop better self esteem by being proud of a project they created with their own hands.
We offer 1/2 day or week long classes. Give us a call for more details.
