My husband, son and I, thoroughly enjoyed our wheel throwing workshop Sunday the 10/3. Considering it was a 39deg day, the room was set up with fans, iced water to keep us cool. Very thoughtful! Examples/instructions given by teachers were clear and easy to follow, loved everything about this workshop. The best birthday present I ever received. Thank you!

My daughter’s 16th birthday present and I wanted an experience gift that was great value and fun she loved it and was a great opportunity to broaden her art experience in this way as schools aren’t offering this platform. The workshop was led so well by talented experienced artists covering technique, it was laid back and fun. The venue was a great space and a fantastic intro into the art world. + more
