Discover the timeless art of coil building in this hands-on ceramics class in Los Angeles! Whether you’re brand new to clay or looking to grow your handbuilding skills, this workshop will walk you through one of the oldest pottery techniques—rolling, stacking, and smoothing coils to build beautiful forms.
Taught in a welcoming LA studio, this 2-hour class includes step-by-step instruction, all tools and materials, and plenty of space to express your creativity. You’ll handbuild your own vessel—perfect as a vase or decorative piece—and enjoy a mindful, artistic escape in the heart of LA’s vibrant ceramics scene. Come solo or bring a friend for a relaxed and inspiring experience.
Used across cultures for thousands of years, this ancient technique is a wonderful foundation if you’re dreaming of making larger or more abstract ceramic pieces in the future. After class, we’ll handle the firings for you, and your finished piece will be ready for pickup in about six weeks!

Clay CA is an artist-run ceramic studio located in Los Angeles’ Chinatown. The studio offers a range of workshops, equipment, a one-of-a-kind glaze chemistry room, pottery wheels, kiln space, and 24-hour studio space. CLAY CA is a community space meant to encourage creative growth and experimentation, along with investigating and understanding the structural form of clay. Given society’s hyperactive use of technology, we find that fostering a sense of community and being present are more important than ever. Our goal is to provide Los Angeles with more access to personal interactions, cognitive building skills, and ceramic knowledge. We welcome people of all backgrounds and places!
