The studio offers a warm and inviting environment, complete with the necessary tools, expert guidance, and a supportive community to foster the growth of artistic expression.
Multi-Week Classes
For those seeking a comprehensive ceramics experience, Claymates presents multi-week classes that guide participants through the entire pottery-making journey. The studio's 6-week classes cover everything from the foundational techniques of wedging to the intricate art of glazing. All materials are thoughtfully provided, ensuring a seamless and immersive exploration of each stage in a pot's life.
Clay Dates
Not ready to commit to a lengthy class? No worries. Claymates introduces the concept of "Clay Dates" – a delightful way to dip your toes into the world of ceramics. These sessions not only serve as an introduction to the craft but also provide a unique opportunity to connect with others over a hands-on, creative activity. Contrary to the name, you don't need to be part of a couple; simply bring along a sweetheart, a family member, or a friend for an unforgettable experience.
Skill Building Workshops
For those looking to expand their clay skills or dive into new ones, Claymates offers one-time workshops catering to various experience levels. Tailored for both experienced ceramicists and beginners, these workshops cover a range of techniques and artistic approaches.
