Discover the joy of creating beautiful, functional ceramics in this relaxed 4-week hand-building clay course.
Perfect for beginners and those with some clay experience, this course will guide you through a variety of hand-building techniques as you create three unique ceramic pieces: a handmade mug, a charming butter dish, and a whimsical handbag vase.
You’ll learn essential clay skills including slab building, joining, shaping and adding texture.
The fourth session is dedicated to glazing, where you’ll learn how to apply glazes to bring your creations to life. After glazing, your pieces will be kiln-fired and ready to use, display, or gift.
Come get creative, learn new skills, and enjoy four inspiring evenings working with clay in a welcoming and supportive environment.

I've been working with clay for over 25 years, and I still get excited every time I open a kiln. There’s magic in turning a lump of earth into a piece that becomes part of someone’s daily life. My work is rooted in the natural textures and tones of the West Coast, often blending organic forms with clean, modern lines. I primarily work on the wheel, but I also love the freedom and playfulness of hand-building—especially when teaching. Over the years, I’ve taught hundreds of students through private lessons, group workshops, and community programs, and I find real fulfilment in helping others connect with clay for the first time (and fall in love with it). Pottery, for me, is both grounding and expressive—a balance of technique and spontaneity. Every piece tells a story, and no two are ever quite the same. That’s what keeps me coming back to the studio.
