Get your hands in clay during a fun evening as our Vallejo Clay instructor takes you on a 2-hour hands-on tour of pottery making. No prior experience needed! Grab a seat for yourself, or grab multiple seats for a friend, partner or group! We provide all the tools and clay you will need.
 
Our evening will start with an introductory lesson on the wheel where we will teach you the basics of making a low bowl and cup or vessel through demonstration and hands-on guidance. Participants will get to feel the sensation of spinning clay under their hands and try forming a pot. You will arrive to a wheel with clay already centered, so the hard part is already done for you! You get to try the exciting part-- forming a pot out of a lump of clay.
 
We will then move to the handbuilding table where we will relax a bit, and you will be given a fresh chunk of clay and we will show you how to transform this chunk into a hollow clay ball that can then be transformed into a Make a small bud vase, a sponge holder, a salt pig, or something more sculptural like a face or an animal pot. Let your imagination and your fingers run free while our instructor helps guide you through the more technical aspects of grown-up style pinch potting. Bring your favorite beverage to enjoy during this part of the evening.
 
We will take your creations, glaze them and fire it for you, and it will be ready to pick up in about 4 weeks.
 
Please bring an apron to protect your clothes, or wear something you don't mind getting messy. and your favorite beverage.
