Create your own spooky luminary ghost! Join us for a fun-filled class where you'll design and craft your own ceramic ghost lantern.
Embark on a creative journey with our MYO Spooky Luminary Ghost class, a fun and festive handbuilding experience where you’ll learn to create your own spooky (or cute) ghost lantern using slabs of clay. You’ll explore the basics of handbuilding, from designing to decorating your unique ceramic ghost.
Feel free to bring your favorite beverage, as this BYOB-friendly class adds a touch of fun to your creative process.
Whether you’re a curious beginner eager to explore the world of ceramics or a seasoned artist looking to expand your skills, our MYO Spooky Luminary Ghost class offers the perfect blend of creativity and Halloween spirit. Come, sip, and craft a hauntingly beautiful piece!
All glazing and firings will be completed by the instructor, and you can pick up your finished ghost approximately 2-4 weeks after the workshop at a time arranged with your instructor.
A minimum of 5 students is required for the class; otherwise, it may be canceled or rescheduled at the discretion of Erie ClaySpace. In the event of a cancellation, funds will be fully refunded.

FAQs
Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?
Attendees must be at least 14 years of age or older to attend, and attendees under 21 are not permitted to bring/consume alcohol.
What's the refund policy?
Refunds can be issued if proper notice is given at least 48 hours before the event. Eventbrite fees are nonrefundable.
What should I bring?
Bring an open mind and get ready to get crafty! You should come with any food or beverages you’d like to enjoy during your workshop, as well as any utensils, glasses, plates, etc. that your treats require. ClaySpace does not provide any of these items and is not responsible for clean-up.
What should I wear?
Don’t wear any loose clothing, scarves, or long jewelry. Long hair should be tied back and no rings or bracelets should be worn, as they can fall off or get ruined. All clay washes out of clothing, but wear clothing you care about at your own risk. Nails should be trimmed short to avoid accidentally ruining freshly made work.
What should I expect/what will I learn?
If this is your first time trying ceramics, come with an open mind! You will learn basic forming and decoration techniques. If this is not your first time, you will get a refresher on old techniques, maybe learn some new ones, and brush up your skills in a relaxed atmosphere. The instructor will demo several techniques, walk you through each step at a beginner’s pace, and answer any questions you have as you create. As with many multi-step art forms, creating, finishing and firing pottery does not have a 100% success rate. There is always a chance something could go wrong with one of your pieces in any step of the process. The instructor will always do everything to ensure that your pieces are handled and finished with care.
When will I get my creation?
After the workshop, your instructor will glaze and fire your work. The finishing process takes several days to complete, and students can pick up their work about 2-4 weeks after the workshop at a time agreed upon by the group and instructor.
How can I arrange a private workshop?
Email [email protected]. Workshops should be planned several weeks in advance in order to ensure your date is available. If you have an idea for a private workshop, please email us and we will do our best to accommodate your group. More information can be found on our website: www.erieclayspace.com
