I booked a one time class for my friend and I as a birthday present. It was so much fun! The instructor, Derick, was helpful and explained each step in great detail making it easy to follow along. I was able to throw three pieces in the two hours, my friend and I had such a good time!

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!
