Senior Time is made just for adults age 60 and up. It’s a calm and friendly space to be creative, meet new people, and have fun.
How It Works:
Drop in anytime between 12 and 3 PM – stay as long or as little as you like. No need to sign up!
Each week, we pick a different pottery piece for everyone to paint (like a mug, bowl, or small decoration).
The cost is just $10, and that includes your pottery, paints, and supplies. Pieces must be painted and finished in the same day.
No experience needed. Just come and enjoy – we’ll help you if you'd like. Just let us know!
Chat with others or paint quietly – it’s all up to you.
When you’re finished, we’ll fire your piece in the kiln, and it’ll be ready to pick up in about a week.
Everything is provided, including aprons and comfy seating.
This is a fun, no-pressure way to try something new, see old friends, or make new ones.
Join us every Thursday and make something special – just for you or a gift for others!

🕛 Drop-In, No Reservation Needed
There’s no need to sign up in advance – simply stop by anytime between 12 PM and 3 PM. Whether you stay for 30 minutes or the full three hours, you’re welcome to paint at your own pace.
🖌️ New Pottery Project Each Week
Each Thursday features a different pottery piece, such as a mug, bowl, trinket dish, or seasonal item. The project changes weekly, so there’s always something fresh to enjoy.
💬 A Friendly, Easygoing Atmosphere
This is a judgment-free space meant for creativity, not perfection. Whether you’re a lifelong artist or it’s your first time holding a paintbrush, you’re in good company. Many people come just to relax, chat, and have fun – no experience necessary.
👥 Social & Community-Focused
Senior Time is as much about connection as it is about creativity. You’ll have the chance to meet new people, share stories, and maybe even pick up a few painting tips along the way. Bring a friend or come solo – everyone is welcome!
