MAY EVENTS & WORKSHOPS
ONE-ON-ONE POTTERY WHEEL LESSONS
Private pottery wheel lesson led by ceramicist Sofia Ivanna. Whether you're looking to try something new or gift yourself a peaceful creative experience, this session is a perfect way to connect with clay and make something truly your own. During this lesson, you'll learn the basics of wheel throwing, from centering the clay to shaping your unique piece. After your session, we will take care of the rest! This process takes about 2-4 weeks, and we appreciate your patience as we ensure your piece is finished with care. If you are visiting from out of town, we are happy to ship your finished piece once completed.
Each session includes up to one hour of instruction and wheel time. Some guests use the full hour, while others finish their piece in as little as 20 minutes. It all depends on your pace and experience. You're welcome to take the time you need to enjoy the process fully.
Our single wheel setup ensures each person gets individual attention, however couples or small groups are welcome to share the experience by taking turns. For a couple or group bookings, please select back-to-back time slots and contact Sofia in advance.
