2 Day Workshop or Friday Date night.

 

  1. Looking for a date night that is anything but ordinary? Join us at our studio in Guelph for a playful, hands-on pottery experience for couples. In this class, you and your partner can share one wheel or have your own pottery wheel and create a piece together and or separate whether it’s a mug, bowl, or whatever your hands dream up.

  2. No experience is needed — just bring a sense of fun and a willingness to get a little messy. The class begins with a guided demo from our instructor, who will provide support as much or as little as you need while you shape your creation together.

  3. Once your piece is complete, it will be bisque fired, glazed, and kiln fired to make it food safe, microwave safe, and dishwasher safe, so you can enjoy your handmade creation at home.

  4. This workshop is a fun and creative way to connect, collaborate, and get your hands dirty together.
