Wheel Throwing

Our wheel room is for those who have pottery wheel training or have taken a class with us before.

If that’s not you – sign up for a class! You snooze, you lose – and you don’t want to miss out on getting behind the wheel.

We also offer wheel throwing birthday parties for all level of experience, including none.

Upcoming Wheel Throwing Events

If you’re new to this, we have tons of ways to help you get behind the wheel.

Don’t miss out on our regular events like Try it Tuesdays or Patrick Swayze-inspired Date Nights!

Open Wheel Hours

This one’s for the wild ones and freestylers!

Wed-Sat: 11 am - 8 pm
Sun: 12 pm - 6 pm

Book time in 2-hour blocks in an independent time and space. See for yourself how clay work takes your head out of the daily hustle!

The wheel room is for wheel throwing, slab building, sculpting, and preparing pieces for finishing/glazing.

  • This is not a class and will be no instructor available.

  • We provide your wheel, and you can purchase a minimum of 5 lbs of clay in-studio.

  • Community tools are available but you’re welcome to bring your own.

Wheel Throwing Birthday Parties

We hate to brag (well–no we don’t), but we throw the best parties ‘round town!

Don't dress up for this one – we get a liiiittle dirty. Your “wheel time” includes a lil intro, then your party hosts will help each child makes one masterpiece on their wheel. Their sense of ownership and pride in their creations is magical!

Oh, and no one’s forgetting to assist with your party treats. I mean, it is a party, right?
