Private Wheel Party!

    • Hands-on instruction and guidance through creating your first pieces on the wheel (parties typically run about 1 to 1.5hrs including clean-up time)

    • We can center your clay for you if desired (the kinda tricky bit) so you can have fun with the rest of the creative process!
