Lesson Offerings

  • A single 1.5-hour session for one or two people — no experience needed, no commitment required. Just you, some clay, and a really good couple of hours.

    Perfect for a date night, a girls' night, or a parent & child session. It's a great way to find out if pottery is something you want to pursue further before signing up for a longer course.

    Clay, tools & glaze included in price. Prices include the time it takes myself after completion of the lesson to complete the pieces (trimming, glazing & firing). Finished pieces will be ready for pickup approx. 4-6 weeks after class.

    Solo - $85 + tax

    Pair - $150 + tax

  • Six 1.5 hour sessions, with space for 2 people at a time, so you'll get genuine hands-on guidance every single week.

    Over our time together you'll work through mugs, bowls, plates, and more, with every lesson tailored to where you are and where you want to go.

    By the end you'll have a small collection of pieces that are entirely yours - made by your hands, glazed & fired, ready to live in your home or give as gifts. Finished work will be ready for pick up 2-4 weeks after your final glazing session.

    Everything is included - clay, tools, glazing & firing for up to 6 pieces. All you need to do is show up!

    Solo - $450 +tax

    Pair - $790 + tax

  • Designed for students who have already taken at least one pottery class - either with me or at another studio. You know the basics and you're ready to dive in.

    Unlike our other offerings, materials and firing are not included in the session price, and all trimming and glazing is completed by you during your studio time rather than by me between classes. Clay is purchased separately in studio as needed, with glazes and kiln firing bundled into the clay price so there are no surprise costs.

    Clay available in studio: Half bag (5lbs) — $25 · Full bag (10lbs) — $46

    Ideal for anyone who wants to keep their hands in clay, work toward a specific project, or carve out a regular creative outlet without committing to a fixed weekly schedule.

    Single drop-in: Solo - $70 + tax · Pair - $120 + tax

    5-session pack: Solo - $315 + tax · Pair - $550 + tax

Spots are filled from the waitlist personally. I'll reach out once there's an opening that suits you. Because this is my home studio, this little extra step helps me make sure it stays a safe and welcoming space for everyone.
