Team Building & Private Events

Team workshops foster collaboration and creativity. Time outside the workplace allows colleagues to get to know one another while building a skill. Our team off-site events are hosted around large communal tables to maximize conversation and creativity.

In addition to corporate events we host adult birthday parties and children’s parties.

ACTIVITY

This introductory class teaches basic handbuilding, coiling, and textural techniques. Students learn to create beautiful forms using texture, color, and plaster molds. You’ll create mugs, bud vases, planters, or sculptural forms - all based on your own creativity and led by an instructor’s demonstration.

LOW BAR / HIGH CEILING

Handbuilding has a low entry point, but endless possibilities. It allows students with no experience and students with past experience to excel equally. Students push their own creativity, but we also provide example pieces and photos to inspire.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

Students are provided with the tools, clay, aprons, and instruction needed for the event. They are encouraged to get messy and you may bring food and drinks. Pieces will be glazed, fired, and ready for pick-up in 4 weeks.
