Join us for a calming and tactile introduction to handbuilding and painting on clay workshop.

Together, we’ll explore foundational handbuilding techniques and paint into leather-hard clay as personal expression.

What You’ll Learn

• Two handbuilding techniques (pinch and coil)
• Surface carving techniques and pattern exploration
• Composition and balance in handmade pieces

What You’ll Create

Each participant will make two finished pieces, such as:

• A small bowl or cup
• A trinket dish or incense holder
• A decorative tile or sculptural piece

After the workshop, your pieces will be dried, glazed, and kiln-fired. They will be ready for pickup at my studio approximately 3–4 weeks later.

What’s Included

• Clay and all materials

• Tools for shaping and carving

• Firing and transparent glazing

• A supportive, beginner-friendly environment

• Light refreshments

Who This Is For

• Beginners curious about clay
• Creatives wanting to explore texture and surface design
• Anyone seeking a mindful, hands-on experience
• Friends looking for a creative date

No prior experience is required — just come as you are.

Why Handbuilding & Painting?

Working with clay is both grounding and expressive. It invites patience, observation, and intention which will allow you to slow down and leave your personal mark.

This is more than just a workshop.
It’s an invitation to soften, explore, and create with your hands.
