Learn pottery in this creative ceramics workshop in Chicago!



2 hours Class size 1 to 4     label $35

Enjoy time to play with clay in this ceramics workshop in Chicago. In this open-format session, experience the magic of ceramics and immerse your hands in constructive creativity!

Choose from a selection of project ideas and building methods, including the potter's wheel. With professional guidance from your host, you'll discover the confidence to create, a memory to cherish, and a memento to carry away. This small workshop setting in a private art studio is a great way to get hands-on learning.

From wheel-throwing to free sculpting, the studio is yours to explore. Practice, play, and enjoy time out; a few weeks later, your creations are fired and ready for pickup!

New! Weekly Monday Sessions offer a chance for deeper focus and learning. Design projects that take more than one sitting, learn more about glaze, or follow your interest in a new direction. All levels welcome. Mondays 11am-1pm.

Private classes are great for birthday party ideas, families, friend get-togethers, and date nights! Book out some studio time exclusively for your group, and enjoy building memories as you also build with the clay. From $160 for 2 hours, up to 4 people; maximum 8 per session. Other rates available, please ask!

I am a ceramic artist and teacher who specializes in wheel-thrown earthenware. Teaching is about building partnerships. It takes time to define one’s perspective and I encourage students to remain open to changes, embrace them, and look for lessons in both successes and failures.

With my work, I’m really interested in how we form connections, and where those lead us, in this present moment. Aside from my own explorations in functional and sculptural vessels, I am known as a drum-maker.
