everybody’s making something… you should too.
try nights
We offer a single-night introduction to clay for anyone that wants to give pottery a spin. A skilled instructor will help students explore working with clay on the wheel during a 2-hour session. Come on your own or with a friend — this is an open, friendly environment.
Anyone over the age of 12 is welcome to join, but anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult who is also attending the session. You don’t need to bring a thing, just arrive 5 minutes before we begin.
You’ll pick your two favorite pieces to have glazed and fired. If you would like to keep an additional finished work from a one-time session, we will be happy to glaze and fire it for you to pick up in 4-6 weeks for an additional $5 per piece.
Space is limited, so signing up ahead of time is required!

"For a first timer it was perfect."
Amazing fun. The staff are fun, knowledgeable, engaging. They make what is an already great experience into something genuinely memorable. This was our first trip here and it definitely won’t be our last. The studio is nice and light, for a first timer it was perfect.
"We absolutely loved it!"
Booked a try night for my husband & I and we absolutely loved it! Jordan did a great job teaching the class and was such a joy to work with - as were the other employees! 10/10 recommend!
"I would give 10 stars if I could."
Excellent experience, I would give 10 stars if I could. We had Diego as an instructor, he is very patient and easy going. I highly recommend this place!
"Challenging, yet satisfying."
Such a great experience! I went to a Try Night and had a lot of fun. It was challenging yet satisfying seeing your piece find shape in real time. I would totally recommend as a solo experience or as a group. I can't wait to pick up my pieces in a few weeks!
"Already planning to go back."
So much fun! My husband and I went for a try night, and we had such a blast. Diego was our instructor and he was super cool and helpful! Already planning to go back!
"Great place for art & fun."
Great place for art and fun! Very nice owners! They will always treat you right.
"The studio is adorable."
I took my mom to a Try Night as a Mother's Day gift and we had SO much fun! First off - the studio is adorable. On top of that, the employees are so friendly and create such an enjoyable environment... even if you've never touched clay before! Great memories made and 10/10 experience!
"My son is already begging to attend the next camp."
My nine-year-old son recently took a winter camp class at this studio. It was an amazing experience. He made items that were just so cool and had a blast doing it. The instructor is so kind and was great with the kids. My son is already begging to attend the next camp. The facility was extremely clean and the decor was very cute.
