Important Information:

CLASS TYPE: This is a pottery painting class. It is NOT on the pottery wheel and does not include wet clay.
GLAZING: You will get to paint your own butter dish, 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.
