Join us for a hands-on pottery workshop where you'll create 2-3 unique, hand-built dishes using the natural beauty of fresh herbs and flowers impressed into clay. You'll learn the basics of rolling out clay slabs, decorating with botanical textures, and shaping your creations into functional dishes.

Discover how to use simple tools and techniques to form your pieces and add beautiful, nature-inspired details. Several examples of finished dishes will be available, and you’ll choose your preferred glaze color for your final pieces.
No prior pottery experience is necessary—this class is perfect for beginners! All materials will be provided, and once your dishes are glazed and fired by the instructor, they’ll be ready for pickup two weeks after the class.

Come unwind, get creative, and make one-of-a-kind dishes that capture the essence of nature!
