More Important Information:

• CLASS TYPE: This is a pottery painting & pasta making class. It is NOT on the pottery wheel and does not include wet clay.
• GLAZING: You will get to paint your own plate, which will be dipped in a glossy clear glaze after the event. Stilt marks may be present on the bottom.
• CARE: Ceramics should not be exposed to extreme temperature changes. Hand-wash or allow to cool to room temperature from the top rack of your dishwasher help prevent shattering. Avoid using boiling water. With care, your future little pots can bring you joy for a long while.
• TURNAROUND TIME: Your PASTA will be ready to go home same day. Pottery, however, is a process and takes time. Your PLATE will be ready for pickup from the studio approximately 4-6 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 after 6 weeks to check on your pots or send us an email. Any practice pottery left at the studio 3 months after the workshop date will be donated, so please pick up your work in time if you want to keep them!
