The wheel throwing class here was amazing - Tommy was the BEST teacher we could have had, they made it so accessible and fun to work with clay for the first time. Love this place!

Saltstone is a special place. I’ve taken classes at three different studios over the years and saltstone is by far my favorite. Every teacher I’ve had is skilled, kind, and passionate about ceramics. The studio is a lovely little community, and I would highly recommend any of the workshops or courses.
