Valentine's Pottery - couples workshop

Hosted by Liberation Art Gallery

Celebrate connection, creativity, and a little clay-covered fun at Liberation Art Gallery’s Pottery for Two, a special Valentine’s Day hand-building workshop designed for couples, friends, or anyone looking to share a meaningful creative experience.

In this guided session, you and your partner will learn the fundamentals of hand-building pottery while crafting your own functional ceramic pieces. Choose to make mugs, bowls, or heart-shaped dishes, and add a personal touch with engraved initials, names, or short messages to make your pieces truly one of a kind.

No prior pottery experience is needed, this workshop is beginner-friendly, relaxed, and all about enjoying the process together.

• Step-by-step instruction from a skilled ceramic artist
• All clay, tools, and materials provided
• Creation of two handmade pottery pieces (one per person)
• Personal engraving of initials or meaningful details
• Kiln firing included - to finish your pottery ready to pick up at a later date
• Ticket price is for one adult 1.5 hour workshop

• Valentine’s Day date night
• Couples, best friends, or creative partners
• A unique, hands-on alternative to traditional Valentine plans

Come create something lasting, a handmade keepsake that holds both memories and meaning.

Spots are limited. Reserve your place early to share the love through art.

Guided by our in-house ceramics artist, the class encourages personal expression, experimentation, and the development of individual style. Whether you are completely new to ceramics or looking to expand your practice, this course provides the time, space, and instruction needed to grow your skills.
