About This Adventure

Clay Dates are designed for couples, friends, or small groups that want to do something different. We want you to learn what it takes to throw a pot, but it's just as important to us that you have a good experience.You will get a chance to try out a potter's wheel and get your hands dirty, while our instructor helps you to make your own unique pot. We provide everything you need. All you have to do is come ready to have a good time, and remember to wear clothes that can get dirty (this includes shoes).

We will finish and fire one piece per person in the glaze of your choice. Work will be finished and ready for you to pick up in approximately 2 weeks.

You do not need to be romantically involved to register for a Clay Date. In addition to couples, Clay Dates are perfect for:

  • Friends
  • Family Fun
  • Birthday Parties, Showers, & Small Reunions
  • Corporate Outings

Please remember the following rules:

  • Classes are adults only (18+)
  • We are not currently allowing children of any age to participate in classes.
  • Classes have a maximum attendance of 8 students.
  • Face masks are optional. If worn, they need to cover your nose and mouth.
  • Hand sanitizer will also be available in the classroom
  • We no longer allow you to bring food and beverages We do have drinking fountains, but you may prefer to bring your own water bottle.
  • We are committed to cleaning the studio daily to keep surfaces sanitized.

Please wear clothes and shoes you can get dirty, trim your fingernails, and leave your watch and rings at home. Clay is messy and we don't want you to lose anything. If you have long hair, you will want to wear it back.
