Step into the flow of clay and design with one of our newest slab-building workshops!

Guided by the incredible local artist Liz Thiessen, this workshop blends creativity, function, and beautiful organic form. Whether you’re brand new to clay or already hooked, you’ll leave with a unique handmade piece that’s as practical as it is eye-catching.
