3 hours Location Greenpoint Class size 1 to 14 (public classes), 6 to 35   $105

Tap into your creativity with this calming ceramics class, set in a cozy Greenpoint studio along the water. In this beginner-friendly Brooklyn pottery class, you’ll explore the fundamentals of hand-building while crafting a vase (7.51" x 3") out of porcelain slabs—perfect for a center piece.
Using colored clay slips in soft hues like blue, black, gray, and pink, you’ll design surface patterns that make your vase uniquely yours. Your instructor will guide you step-by-step through shaping, decorating, and preparing your vase for glazing.
Finished pieces will be glazed and fired for you, ready to pick up about two weeks later. Whether you’re flying solo, planning a date, or searching for fun things to do in NYC, this hands-on pottery workshop is a warm, welcoming introduction to the world of clay.

Recent reviews of Porcelain Vase Pottery Class

  • 5/5 from Anthony Mejias, attended Nov 2026: The vase class was challenging and at the same time fun. Essentially it is the same as the previous classes I've taken but with the addition of having created each section of the vase, assembling the three sections into one, and assemble as each section matches the previous one as close as possible. Challenging and fun
  • 5/5 from Anthony Mejias, attended Feb 2026: This is my third time taking the Mugs and Saucers Workshop and its just as enjoyable as the first. In this workshop I mixed colors to get a third and fourth and tgat was fun to do and use. I've again just channeled my inner Wassily Kandinsky and kept my designs abstract. Anyone wishing to try slip casting, porcelain clay and painting Wilcoson is the place to go.
