2 hours Location Venice and other locations Class size 1 to 10 (public classes), 8 to 30   $75 - $90 ($75 for Public class; $90 for Private class)

Slow down and tap into the beauty of imperfection with this beginner-friendly modern Kintsugi workshop. Inspired by Kintsugi, the ancient Japanese art of golden repair, turns broken ceramics into stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces—because flaws aren’t flaws, they’re part of the story.
In this class, you’ll learn a modern, beginner-friendly Kintsugi inspired technique using easy-to-work-with adhesives and brass powder (I will have multiple metallic hues available) to bring a broken plate or art piece back to life. No waiting for days—this method dries quickly and is hypoallergenic, making it perfect for decorative ceramics (just not for food use).
We will have a choice to break & repair a small bowl or plate. There is also a limited # of handmade pieces available. You have an option to bring your own piece as well (if you do please check with me in advance).

Recent reviews of Modern Kintsugi Ceramics Workshop

  • 3/5 from Judi Sinclair, attended Mar 2026: Instructor was nice. Not too much instruction on how to do the project was given. Primarily it was how to mix the material but not the application technique. The applicators were wooden sticks which didn't give much style to the material and was difficult to finese. The venue was dark and uncomfortable. Not really conducive to creative work. Probably good for newbies or a group wanting to try something new and simple with each other.
  • 2/5 from Tasha Huo, attended Feb 2026: Everyone was perfectly lovely and I'm glad I did it, but there was nothing in the class that felt like I couldn't learn it from watching a YouTube video. The instruction was minimal, the history and education around kintsugi were not discussed at all and were dismissed when students tried to bring it up. Plus, all the tools are easily purchasable on Amazon. All the benefits usually taken from a class, like further instruction, assistance when something isn't going right, and more in-depth or professional education, were all missing. And, being shoved in the back of a trendy restaurant made it feel less like a genuine class and more like an Instagram opportunity.
  • 5/5 from Davina Ahia, attended Jan 2026: So much fun. Behold, the fish once shattered now repaired!
  • 5/5 from Roger Wong, attended Jan 2026: Kintsugi class is as very fun and a great place to learn the practice of kintsugi. All the supplies were provided by the teacher. They were so helpful in providing guidance thru out class.
  • 5/5 from Toni Lechene Watson, attended Dec 2025: Teacher was organized and professional. Workshop was fun!
  • 5/5 from Jasmin Ortega, attended Jun 2025: What a fun event, this was. 10 of us took this class as a team building activity to step away from our very busy work days for a bit, and it was a dream. Easy communication about the location, what to expect, etc. I'm already thinking about booking tihs class again with family.

After 10+ years in a very corporate high burn career in management consulting & tech I really wanted to try and do something I love for living. I’d gotten really into ceramics and thought — why not turn something I love into an experience I can share with others?
I saw a need for accessible, community-centered creative experiences — something hands-on, local, and personal. My goal wasn’t just to sell a product, but to offer a space where people could reconnect with themselves and others through creating.
Hosting my events at local Venice Beach restaurants and gathering spaces adds to that magic. It makes the experience feel authentically tied to the neighborhood — supporting local businesses while giving people a taste of the creative energy that makes this community so special.
