Pottery Classes for Adults
Make Your Own Sushi Platter Set
Unwind and get hands-on in our adults-only pottery handbuilding class—no wheel required. Design a sushi platter set while learning slab-building fundamentals, scoring and slipping, clean edge shaping, and basic texture carving. You’ll explore glazing and simple surface design to match your style. Leave with a three-piece set: a sushi plate, soy dish, and chopstick rest. All tools, clay, glaze, and kiln firing included. No experience needed.
