Take a pottery class
Come take a pottery class in the heart of Fort Collins. We offer a wide range of classes for all skill levels. Whether you have been working in clay for years or have never touched it, you are welcome here. Our classes do have some indicator about skill level and experience, but our classes welcome ALL skill levels.
Classes are 2 hours long and run for 10 weeks. You must 18 years or older to take one of our classes.
Each class includes 25lbs of clay, personal instruction, unlimited open lab time, and use of studio glazes. Additional clay can be purchased at the studio. We fire to cone 6 and our glazes are food safe, dishwasher/microwave and oven safe.
FIRST THROW
BEGINNERS
For those who are just beginning their pottery journey. You will learn the basics of throwing on the wheel, do some hand-building, learn glazing, and hopefully have some fun along the way.
THROW THINGS
MORE THAN BEGINNERS
This class is for those with some wheel throwing experience. We will take steps to develop your skills with clay, learn new techniques, and help you feel more confident working with this awesome medium.
CLAY ART
HAND-BUILDERS
Use creative techniques in this hand-building class. The pieces we make in this class are sometimes sculptural, sometimes functional, and sometimes a bit of both. We try to incorporate unique tools as we use clay to make art.
