Bring a drink and a friend.Over 90 minutes, an instructor walks you through it start to finish — centering the clay, opening it up, pulling the walls, and shaping the little belly and rim that make a cauldron look like a cauldron. Black porcelain does most of the atmospheric work for you.Finished size is around a 14 oz cup. Big enough for candy, small enough to keep on a shelf year-round. One cauldron per person.**$45 per person****Included:*** 90 minutes of guided wheel-throwing instruction* Black porcelain clay, tools, and apron* One mini cauldron, about 14 oz* BYOB — bring whatever you'd like to drink, we've got cups**Ages 8 and up.**---## Taking your cauldron homeYou take your cauldron home the same day, unfired.

These artists started Color Cocktail Factory as a way to share their knowledge with novice practitioners in a laid-back environment. But they know that for less-experienced paint slingers, the idea of coating a whole canvas can be wildly intimidating, especially if their third and fourth arms have yet to grow in. So they encourage students to drink, organizing social BYOB lessons where students work on the same guided project. At the end of the session, well-hydrated pupils take home their very own paintings, which might be a sugar-skull portrait, a landscape, or the recreation of a famous masterpiece." } ] } ] ```
