Our New Home!!!

We are happy to announce our move to a new location!!! This session (Session 6) Marks the beginning of a new chapter for us!

This move comes with many changes and updates. Prices for all classes will increase to combat the rising rent price and costs of goods. This new building will provide a much more comfortable experience for our students and renters. Those who have been with us for a while know our battle with the kilns and our HVAC. This issue is now a thing of the past! The kilns will now have their own room and we regret to inform you that we will no longer offer a free sauna with our classes! 😁

We look forward to growing in this new space and offering more pottery adventures.
