Recent reviews of Hand-Building Ceramic Workshop: Make Your Perfect Mug

  • 5/5 from Elsa Augustine, attended Oct 2025: Great class that allowed us to be creative in a nice, meditative space.
  • 5/5 from David Chalmers, attended Feb 2025: Such a great class - bought for my girlfriend and I as a Valentines Day activity and will go back for other sessions/events! The instructor Natalie was fantastic, constantly floating around and giving advice or hands on assistance as necessary while letting you find your own way! Most notably, she did a great job of breaking the initial awkward tension that naturally exists in these settings and by the end of it I felt like we got to know the other people in the class and around me quite well!
  • 5/5 from Daphne Logan, attended Nov 2024: We went to celebrate my husband’s birthday and had an amazing time! Natalie is a wonderful teacher who creates a warm and friendly atmosphere. She is a very clear, attentive, and helpful instructor and ensured that everyone created something beautiful, from very beginners to those of us with a little more experience. We each made mugs and we used clay “tattoos” in lieu of glaze, since it’s a single-session workshop. The physical space was lovely and had great natural lighting. The clay was fresh and easy to work with and all the tools were in good shape. Definitely a great value for the money, and I was happy to support a small business owner!
  • 5/5 from Roxane Reich, attended Nov 2024: Wonderful classes and such a great teacher!
  • 5/5 from Bryant Born, attended Nov 2024: Beyond my expectations of fun and craft. Natalie was a tremendous leader who showed individual attention and flexibility. Will definitely be returning!
  • 5/5 from Crystal Lee, attended Nov 2024: Natalie was great! Patient, engaging, and informative. Our family took a class for my mom’s birthday and we absolutely loved it!
  • 5/5 from Holden Scholl, attended Nov 2024: Our teacher Natalie was fantastic! We took a little extra time with our mugs and she let us stay after 4. Even helping me finish mine herself
  • 5/5 from Hannah Katz, attended Nov 2024: We had a great time learning how to make mugs, very fun experience for the weekend!
  • 5/5 from Adele, attended Oct 2024: This atelier was really lovely. I had such a nice time with this team. Thank you!
