About

In this fun beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll create a unique clay planter for your houseplants using slab and coil building techniques. Building this way will allow you to create interesting, funky shapes that are one of a kind! Once you’re finished, you will select your glaze and your pieces will be glazed and fired by the studio and available for pick up in 3-4 weeks.

Our workshops are a great activity for friends, partners and families! Workshops are suitable for kids 10 and over with an accompanying adult.
