What happens on the day
Get ready to transform a ball of clay into a beautiful work of art!
Your 2-hour workshop begins in a warm and welcoming studio in Chicago’s River North neighborhood. Here, you’ll take a seat at the potter’s wheel and practice different hand-building techniques. Next, bring your creation to life with your choice of vibrant engobes—clay slips that will add gorgeous layers of color and texture to your piece.
Whether you craft a mug, plate, or something entirely unique, your piece will be a functional, beautiful addition to your home. Of course, your expert instructor will be there every step of the way, offering guidance, tips, and plenty of encouragement.
Once your masterpiece is complete, it will be carefully glazed and fired—ready for you to pick up in just a few weeks!
