Pottery Picnic (Outdoor Handbuilding Workshop)

A perfect activity for a relaxing yet productive day. Touch some grass, soak in some sun, and unwind while getting creative.
We will meet at the beautiful and serene Alhambra park. It is a perfect picnic location, so feel free to bring a blanket, snacks, and drinks to chill before or after the class.☀️🌳

You will be learning the basics of handbuilding (sculpting without the wheel).

✨It’s a perfect date or a friends' outing, but is also singles-friendly ✨

I pride myself in letting people work on their individual ideas, so we will not be making the same thing simultaneously. I start by explaining the techniques, and then help everyone as they work on their unique projects.

This masterclass requires NO previous experience! All materials are provided.

Working with clay is an enormous creativity booster and bliss for your mental health.

***

You will learn some fun facts about ceramics and get familiar with the clay. After deciding on the piece you want to create and picking the technique, you can get in the zone and deep focus on the craft or continue chatting and exchanging tips and ideas.

We will finish the workshop by selecting glazes for your creations and exchanging social media in case we feel like staying connected.

In about 4 weeks after the class you will get one or two ready-to-use ceramic pieces.

I will fire them for you in a professional pottery studio, glaze it, fire it again, gift wrap, and prepare for a pick up in Los Angeles or (for an additional fee) ship anywhere in the US or around the world.

You can keep one piece for yourself and gift the second piece to your loved ones 🥰
There’s nothing like the feeling of USING something that you made with your own hands. Trust me, this is about to be the favorite mug/plate/bowl/planter 🥣🍶🪴

Hope to see you soon!

PROCESSING DISCLAIMER:

While the processing of your piece (trimming, firing, glazing) is complimentary and does not require an additional fee, when purchasing a ticket, you are paying for CLASS ATTENDANCE, not a finished product. For most attendees, the outcome of the class is a finished ceramic piece (provided the processing goes smoothly), but the organizer is not responsible for any damage that may occur during drying or kiln firing. We always do our best, but pottery is a very volatile craft. Please keep that in mind.
While we take every precaution to ensure that your creations are handled with care throughout the process, it’s important to understand that imperfections and occasional breakages may occur, particularly during the firing process.
By participating in this workshop, you acknowledge that our studio is not liable for any damages or breakage that may happen to your work during or after firings. Refunds cannot be provided for such occurrences, but you will have an option to remake a new piece for free or pick up a small consolation gift. Thank you for your understanding and for embracing the beautiful unpredictability of handmade ceramics.

Your pieces are usually ready within 4-6 weeks after the class, but the process may take longer depending on the studio's firing schedule or complications during the drying/firing/glazing (especially if extra services or classes were requested). Although it's not common, in certain cases processing can take up to a few months.

Once your works are ready for pickup, you will be notified via text and/or email.

**SMS Opt-In Disclaimer**

By purchasing a ticket, you agree to receive SMS messages from the organizer about class schedules, updates, and promotions.
