At the end of the workshop, participants will be invited to choose two pieces to keep. Your creations will be left at the studio to be fired and glazed in a solid color of your choice.

Private workshops are ideal for those seeking a more personalized learning experience. Sessions can be tailored for complete beginners or more experienced potters looking to refine their technique or focus on specific skills.
Wheel throwing sessions are available one-on-one or in small groups of up to six participants.
For larger corporate events or group bookings, on-site handbuilding workshops can be arranged. I bring everything needed and guide your team through the full process—from shaping to finishing techniques. Each participant will create their own piece and select a glaze color for the final firing. For corporate inquiries, please email me.
Once you book a private workshop, you will receive a schedule of available dates and times to choose from. If you are planning a special event or are hoping to book for a specific date, please email prior to making the order.
