Pottery Painting at The Cozy Bookwyrm

Come enjoy a fun pottery painting session! 

We recently opened a new location in the South Front District called The Cozy Bookwyrm! This location now has all of our pottery painting options. We have a quaint selection of decorative and functional ceramics for you to customize with underglaze. No experience necessary! Come and enjoy a creative outing where you’ll make something cherished for years to come! Our prices generally range from $20-$65 + tax (no additional fees!).

Here’s how it works:

  • Head over to our Cozy Bookwyrm shop at 1540 S 2nd St, Suite 220, Wilmington, NC 28401 no later than 2 hours before we close for the day (we share a unit with Yoga Salt and Cafe Mata) - this ensures you have plenty of time to paint :) Our hours for this location can be found here.
  • Grab some coffee or tea from Cafe Mata (if visiting during their open hours)
  • Select your pottery + underglaze colors and get painting!
  • Once finished, wait approximately 2 weeks for your pottery pieces to come out of their final kiln firing. 

Additional Information:

Your creations will be ready for pickup from the studio approximately two weeks from the workshop date. You should receive a pickup email when they're finished, but if it is eaten by filters, please come by the studio two weeks after the class date check on your pots. Any pottery left at the studio three months after the workshop date will be donated, so please pick up your work in time!

If you need your pottery shipped, please send us an email with your address and a photo of your pottery. Shipping within the USA usually ranges between $10-$25 depending on where it is being sent to and how heavy your package is.

YOU MUST SIGN YOUR POTTERY. Bookworm Pottery & Co. is not liable for lost pieces that are unsigned and mistakenly claimed by another student.

Not all pieces are guaranteed to make it out of the kiln if instructions are not followed. Improper glaze application can cause cracks or even shattering in the firing process. However, the goal is to just have fun, so don’t stress about it! If your piece breaks in the kiln, you will be given a makeup painting session.

Tickets cannot be refunded, prorated or exchanged for another workshop due to the special nature of our offerings and very limited enrollment.
