Private Pottery Workshops

 

Welcome to your private pottery workshop — a hands-on, creative experience that inspires connection through clay. Whether it’s a team-building event, a birthday, or simply gathering friends, I’ll guide you through a two-hour session of making with clay.

You’ll learn simple hand-building techniques — coil and pinch — suitable for all ages and experience levels. Each participant will create their own vessel while learning about my practice.

I provide all materials and supplies. Once the work is glazed and fired, pieces can be picked up from my studio. Light snacks and cocktails are also included.

  • Minimum fee: $300 (covers 4 participants — the organizer’s spot is complimentary)

The evening includes a short talk on the Japanese tea bowl tradition, sample bowls for inspiration, a casual tea ceremony, and a guided making session.
