Make-a-Mug Handbuilding Workshop
This one-time workshop is about slowing down, shaping clay with your hands, and creating your own cozy mug or tumbler — perfect for your cold-weather drinks or gifting to that special someone. With just two seats per session, the vibe stays personal and hands-on.
You’ll spend 90 minutes learning the basics of handbuilding while making a one-of-a-kind vessel. I’ll take care of the glazing and firing, and a few weeks later you’ll pick up your finished pottery.
Book a solo seat or book with a friend — every class feels personal and unrushed.
★1 ticket = 1 person. Purchase 2 tickets if you’re bringing a guest.
