Clays We’ll Be Trying:
- Ermine with Speckles – A white stoneware with fun, black speckles
- Ironstone Black – A deep, groggy, dramatic black clay that makes glazes pop
- Chocolate – Rich, dark, and smooth, like the pottery version of a brownie

Cost:
$20 per person - Includes up to 3 pounds of clay (mix and match however you like!). Sorry, no discounts for using less clay!

Firing is included - we’ll bisque fire, dip in clear glaze, and glaze fire your pieces. Finished pieces will be ready for pickup in about 3 weeks.

Who Can Join?
This is not a beginner class, you should already know the basics of wheel throwing or handbuilding. No formal instruction, just a fun chance to test out different clays!
