Are you ready to take the first step on your pottery journey? This is the place to start!

Level 1 - Brand New to Pottery is a single session that will introduce you to different types of clay, different stages of clay/drying, the process of firing, cones, underglazing, the magic of glazes, studio safety procedures, clean-up procedures, etc. 

During the session, you will work on a pinch pot for your Level 1 project. Included in the cost are all materials, plus admission to the Open Studio on 3/11 (so you can come in and glaze your pinch pot).

Completing Level 1 will open up opportunities for you to take Level 2 workshops such as First Time on the Wheel with Jessica Belanger (March 9), the three-part Intro to Coil Building with Brianna Gerrish (starting March 21), and Hand Build a Square Butter Dish with Kelley Marquis (March 23). 

Helpful Info:
Parking: You are welcome to park along the street in front of the pottery studio. There is also additional parking on the side of the former Moose Shack Restaurant and, following that driveway, there is parking in the rear of the building. The pottery studio's spaces are those in line with the dumpster and anywhere farther back from that row. The row closest to the building is reserved for residential tenants of the building. The handicap space is available to anyone who needs it. Taking the short flight of steps and keeping to the left will lead you to our side door. 

Food &amp; Drink: You are permitted to bring drinks in the studio, as long as they are in a lidded container. Food is not allowed in the studio. 

Cancellation: If you register and need to cancel, we require at least 48 hours notice before the first class and will only issue a partial refund of 50%. Any cancellations within 48 hours of the workshop will not receive a refund. 

Timeframe: Please note that pottery is all about patience! It can take anywhere from 2 weeks to a month from start to finish for each piece. If you decide during the workshop that you would like to continue working on your piece, you can wrap it up so that it slows down drying and gets to a leather hard stage. Once you are satisfied with your piece, it has to be completely dry before it goes into the kiln for bisque firing (otherwise it could explode in there!). The next step will be glazing your piece. We will then include your piece in an upcoming glaze firing and notify you once it is finished.
