Did you know we offer Date Night most Friday and Saturday Nights!

Go ahead, get a little dirty! Couples and singles are welcome to join us at The Clay Studio for an evening of romance and throwing on the potters’ wheel. Our skilled instructors guide you through the basics of wheel throwing and options for decorating the pieces that you make.

We will glaze, fire and package your work for pickup. Beer, wine, light snacks, clay and tools are included. Wear or bring clothes to change into that you don’t mind getting dirty. Pre-registration is required!
