One-Off Workshops

It’s winter — and your apartment, house, condo, #vanlyfe van, mancave, ladycave or actual cave is probably drafty. Make a mug to help yourself make it through winter. Use it for drinking hot beverages or simply as a trophy to commemorate that one time you got off the couch in winter and did something great.

Pick up your fired and finished mug about two weeks after the workshop. We’ll call you when it’s ready.

Join us for a two-day, hands-on workshop as we dive into the topic of Raku ceramics. Together, we'll explore traditional Japanese Raku as it relates to religious and cultural practices and its later expression among American ceramicists in the mid-1900s. During the first workshop session, you'll use hand building techniques to create tea bowls. We'll meet the following weekend to glaze and fire your works using the Raku process.

This in-person workshop will take place outside and the Raku process can be messy, so dress accordingly. Open to students of all levels. All materials and tools are included.

Surprise your Valentine with a custom-made, heart-shaped ceramic dish! Your dish could hold relationship mementos, relationship Mentos (The Freshmaker!) or the names of all the jerks who didn’t like you back. If you love Valentine’s Day, you’ll love this workshop — what a cool gift to give to your Valentine. If you detest Valentine’s Day, make a heart-shaped dish for your own ding-dong self and spend the workshop talking loudly about how great it is to eat what you want, watch what you want and sleep in the middle of the bed.

Pick up your fired and finished dish in time for Valentine’s gift-giving. No martyrdom necessary; we will call you when it’s ready.
