CREATE workshops: Craft. Relax. Experiment. Aspire. Tinker. Explore.

Class Details:
✔️ Hands-on instruction
✔️ All materials and clay for one mug
✔️ Glazing and firing of your finished piece
✔️ Light snacks and non-alcoholic beverages

What to Expect:
Learn the art of handbuilding and create your own custom ceramic lantern! In this beginner-friendly class, you’ll explore the coil-building technique, gaining the skills to:

1️⃣ Roll and shape clay coils to form the walls of your mug.
2️⃣ Properly attach and smooth the coils for a seamless look.
3️⃣ Punch out shapes to allow light to flow.
4️⃣ Choose a glaze color to personalize your piece.

Your finished candle lantern will be glazed, fired, and ready for pickup in 10-12 days—we’ll notify you when it’s ready!

Light snacks and non-alcoholic drinks will be provided.

What to Bring:
🥤 Feel free to bring your own snacks and non-alcoholic beverages.
🎨 Dress for mess! Clay has a way of sticking around—so wear something comfortable that can handle a little creativity.
