Wine & Clay (Pottery Handbuilding Workshop)

A perfect activity for a relaxing yet productive night. Unwind with a glass of wine while getting creative.

You will be learning the basics of handbuilding (sculpting without the wheel). It’s a perfect date night or a girl’s night out, 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 stuff.

The venue is located in the artsy part of DTLA with a ton of fun bars and restaurants to hit after the class🪩

This masterclass requires NO previous experience! All materials are provided. A couple of glasses of wine per person are complimentary, but feel free to BYOB.

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

We will start the workshop with a micro networking session to get to know each other. Then 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, and prepare for a pick up. If you don't live in Los Angeles, shipping can be arranged for an additional fee.

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 you made with your own hands. Trust me, this is about to be the favorite mug/plate/bowl/planter 🥣🍶🪴

Hope to see you soon!
