    I love the class settings and the lead instruction’s teaching method. It is worth to try!

    The professor explains super well how to work with the clay, then you try on your own. You are allowed to try a couple of times and then keep the one that you like the most. It was my sister birthday, but you can do it for fun or for a date.

    Had a great time at this class. Have been wanting to try pottery on the wheel for a while now and I’m glad they offer a one time course where you can come home with an item you made. The teacher was great, helpful and explained everything really well!
