A playdate, with clay! During gifting season, duh, because who doesn’t love handmade gifts?
In this edition of Claydate we’re going to be making some little gifts for our loved ones. Come solo to make surprise gifts or come with your BFF/date and make gifts for eachother!!
Ceramics takes a few weeks to process, with glazing and multiple kiln firings, so this would be a great time to make sure you make those one-of-a-kind gifts for your friends, family, or lovers. You will have the option to paint it (9 different ceramic paints, 6 different glaze colors to choose from). Instruction, materials, 2 kiln firings, hand-glazing services, drinks, & snacks all included; great to come to solo or with friends. Beginners encouraged!
All finished pieces are food-safe, microwave-safe, and even oven-safe! Pieces ready in 3-4 weeks for pickup. Delivery available for a fee. Instruction by Aubrey Aiese.
$129 per person (limited early bird tickets available - $117)
Limited spots!

15-20 mins of demonstration on basic clay hand-building techniques. These include slab building, pinch pots, and coil building. Then you’re free to build whatever you’d like with provided clay.
Hand building is a super versatile way of working with clay – you’re not restricted to only round objects, as you might be on a wheel
Unlike many other ceramic workshops in the city, we allow you to both paint your pieces in the same day (9 different ceramic paint colors) and choose between multiple glaze colors (6 different solid glaze colors)
The instructor will be available to help, answer questions, and show any custom demos you’d like (for example if you are trying to build something specific).
