Pottery Class FAQs
What's the difference between our classes?
Sip & Spin Wheel Throwing: Our most popular introductory class. Enjoy a relaxed, social 2-hour session learning the fundamentals of throwing on the potter's wheel. BYO drinks welcome!
Couples Date Night: A romantic and tactile evening for two. Learn to center and shape clay together on the wheel in an intimate, guided setting.
Specialty Hand-Building: Prefer working off the wheel? Join our specific project-based classes like the Matcha Bowl Making Class or the Ceramic Charcuterie Board Class.
Glazy Sundays: A focused session teaching you how to apply studio glazes and surface designs to your fired pieces.
Do I need experience to join a pottery class?
Absolutely not! All our pottery classes are designed for everyone, whether you’re a complete beginner, a dabbler, or someone who "can't draw a stick figure." Our expert teachers at ClayGround provide step-by-step guidance in a relaxed, pressure-free environment. Clay is completely recyclable, so if you make a mistake, we simply squish it up and start again!
What should I wear to the pottery class?
Comfort is king at ClayGround! We highly recommend wearing comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting a little muddy, such as relaxed pants and a t-shirt. Since you’ll be straddling the potter's wheel, avoid wearing restrictive clothing or anything made of delicate fabrics like white silk. Don't stress too much about the mess, our clay washes off easily and we also provide protective aprons to all our studnents. Closed-toe shoes are recommended for safety in the studio.
