🎃 Sip & Dip: Glaze Your Own Jack-O’-Lantern Mug (or Tankard!) 🍷

Join us for a cozy, creative 3-hour evening class where you’ll bring your imagination (and your favorite wine!) to life. In this guided session, you’ll glaze your very own bisque-fired jack-o’-lantern mug — or choose a plain mug or beer tankard if you prefer a more classic look. Perfect for sipping cider, coffee, or beer all autumn long.

We’ll provide everything you need:

• A ready-to-glaze ceramic piece of your choice (pumpkin mug, plain mug, or tankard)
• A variety of glazes and design ideas to make it uniquely yours
• Step-by-step guidance from our friendly instructor
• Glaze, studio time, and firing are all included

Price: $50 per person

BYOB (bring your favorite bottle of wine, beer, or cider) and enjoy a relaxed, social atmosphere while you paint, chat, and create. This is the perfect night out with friends, a date night with a seasonal twist, or a solo self-care treat.

Your finished piece will be kiln-fired after class and ready for pickup in about a week — just in time to enjoy your favorite fall beverages in style!

About the Instructor

"Transforming Simple Bisque into Works of Heart"

Hi, I’m E’Marie, and clay has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started out working with greenware alongside my mom, eventually learning the art of slip casting — and I’ve been hooked ever since!

In my classes, we don’t just paint bisque… we play with it. I love teaching beginners how to use underglaze to make bold, bright designs and experimenting with glaze combinations that turn a simple piece into a mini masterpiece.

My style is hands-on, friendly, and totally beginner-approved — no pressure, just lots of color and creativity. I also bring years of experience teaching in professional and university settings, which means I know how to guide you step by step while keeping things light and fun.

When I’m not teaching, I’m hunting for quirky, unique molds and dreaming up fresh ways to mix colors. Whether you’re painting your first mug or your tenth, I’ll help you create something that feels like you.

Let’s make something amazing together — and have a lot of fun doing it!
