One pot is included in the price of the class. Additional pots can be purchased the day of the Raku for $25 each- if you would like to try different designs and techniques or if you just want to play and have fun with Raku!

Saturday Pottery on the Wheel
Join Rob and Sarah for all the basics and in depth knowledge on form and function. Learn how to make basic cylinders, bowls and plates or learn how to design your own pottery and find your voice in clay. Choose the best pieces to keep at the end of class and pick your favorite glaze for them to be finished in. Pottery will be finished in 4 weeks, students are texted when pieces are ready, shipping can be arranged for an additional fee.
People can choose to come once to try Pottery (if so they can choose a color of glaze that we finish the work with), or they can choose to take another class to make more work and glaze their own pots to learn more about the process; all of our glazes and underglazes are made in-house.
Pottery takes 4 weeks on average to finish, and we call each person when their piece(s) are ready to pick up.
