Classes

Learn with us!

Pottery classes are a great way to relieve stress and enhance creativity while learning a new skill! Participants will get a thorough introduction to the craft of pottery making, have fun and interact with others while creating their own ceramic pieces from start to finish.

Registration process

If a class is open to registration (whether there are spots available, or a waitlist), you’ll find a toggle to show the registration form in the card for a corresponding class below.

Note: As of March 2024, we’re trying a bit of a modification to our existing registration process. There might be some kinks, and we appreciate your understanding as we try to streamline our processes and shorten our feedback time to our members and students, without introducing new vendors and additional costs to the Guild.

Keep an eye on our facebook or instagram accounts to be notified when our next round of registration opens.
