Don’t settle for those tired old house numbers from the hardware store. Add that pop of color to the front of your house or mailbox, and make sure all your packages make it to the right doorstep!
In this workshop, we’ll create borders, add cool patterns and textures, and mount raised numbers to create a one-of-a-kind address plaque that will make your neighbors say wow! Want to add a raised sunflower or some fun mushrooms? How about a bird motif, mountains, or sea life? Why not? Honey, if you’ve got the vision, we’ve got the tools!
We’ll glaze with underglazes and wonderglazes on greenware same day to give your work bold colors that stand out. If you’d like to take more time to add detail to your piece, punch cards are available for more studio time.
Plaques are generally about 12 inches long and rectangular, but you’ll be free to modify and add your own ideas for shapes and adornments.
Plaques will be flat-dried, and take 2-3 weeks for firing.
All skill levels welcome.

Add some art to your life while building some great sculpting skills! Come make a 15-20 inch Garden Stack with us!
This popular workshop is back and better than ever! This year, it includes two 3-hour instructional sessions, and one 10-hour punchcard for independent studio time, good for all of June!
Session 1 ~ 6/6/26: You’ll sketch out your unique garden stack and we’ll establish a color and firing plan. Then, you’ll get to work learning slab, coil and pinch techniques to bring your shapes to life. We’ll cover carving, molding, and stamping methods for texture too, all while learning to navigate the studio with ease.
Session 2 ~ 6/20/26: You’ll learn glazing techniques to achieve bright, speckled, bold, or natural surface effects for all of your garden stack pieces. We’ll cover proper application, best practices to avoid kiln disasters, and more!
All materials provided, including clay, glazes, and tools. All your creations will be dried and fired in our studio. The deadline for glaze firing is June 27th.
Worried about finishing your project? Use your punch card for this workshop during all of June to work at your own pace during studio open hours (open late Thursdays)! You’ll find our studio to be welcoming, supportive, and easy to work in.
Garden Stacks are a great introduction to working with clay. If ceramics is something you’ve been wanting to explore more in-depth, we highly recommend this workshop. Students who participate will have the skills to build all types of things! They’ll also be eligible to purchase additional studio punch cards or studio memberships to continue working in ceramics.
