Looking for an alternative to the bar crawl? Tired of the same old routine? Shake things up by attending a Friday night Try It workshop. These 2 hour sessions will allow you to try your hand at throwing clay on the wheel. It's serious fun.

While we don’t promise you will be ready to re-create the famous throwing scene from the movie Ghost, Unchained Melody will be played to create the appropriate ambiance.

Space is limited so please call ahead for reservations.

When your instructor is not teaching clay, she performs in open mic comedy clubs—you've been warned.

Teacher: Julie Madden 

Dates: ANY Friday, July 13-August 17, 2018
Time: 6:30-9:00                              
Cost: Workshop $45.00

          Keeping pieces requires trimming, firing, glazing and firing a second time and
          takes several weeks to complete. We charge an additional $10.00 a piece to
          do that for you. We recycle the pots you don't want to keep.
