what to expect in class
In this 2-hour crash course, you’ll learn all about how to use the pottery wheel, centering clay, pulling your walls, and creating a functional piece! All students can keep (2) of their favorite pieces they make in class, to be fired and glazed by our team, in your choice of color.
Pieces will be available for pickup about 4 weeks after class.

Our Studio
Our studio is located on beautiful farmland in northern Vancouver, south of Battle Ground. We’re close to the city, but far enough to feel like you’re stepping into a different world. We’re 20 minutes from PDX, 15 minutes from Ridgefield, and 20 minutes from Camas.
We have 4 brand new Shimpo VL Lite Wheels and each student will have their own wheel, tools, and water buckets for class. We have a large electric Skutt kiln where we fire all of ours and our students pieces. Our studio is heated, and we have a lovely pellet stove to stay extra warm in the PNW elements.

See below for notes and disclaimers.
We will try to pack in as much as we can into a 2 hour session, but please do not expect perfection after one class. We want you to learn the right way to throw, so you can have the best experience.
Please allow up to 4 weeks after your class for your piece to be glazed, fired, and completed. Art takes time and patience!
Something to note: there are some occasions where pieces do not make it through the firing processes. This is ceramics, and nothing is guaranteed. We will do everything we can to ensure we’ve done our part in making your piece as successful as possible. No refunds if your piece does not make it.
