What you'll do

Forget the flower shop -- this cat vase is cuter than anything you'd find there, and you made it yourself!

Whether you're hunting for fresh creative activities, the most memorable of date ideas, or simply a reason to get your hands gloriously messy, this beginner-friendly clay handbuilding class in Chicago is calling your name. You'll use just one pound of clay to hand build your very own cat vase from scratch -- no prior experience needed, no intimidating techniques, just you, the clay, and a whole lot of charm.

This handbuilding class walks you through every step of the process, so you'll never feel lost or left behind. Think of it as a gentle, encouraging intro to hand building pottery -- a chance to finally figure out how to make a vase while also making it undeniably adorable.

The best part? It's a make-and-paint experience, meaning you get to paint your creation the same day and leave it with us to fire. You walk in curious, you walk out proud. If you've been looking for a sign to try something new and leave with something truly one-of-a-kind, this is it!
