This place is AWESOME! I total hidden gem. It is sooo much fun to create with clay, and Emily is a fabulous instructor! My husband and I were joined by our dear friend and all three of us had a blast! John, our friend who is a pirate but also super creative, was more into table work and made the coolest things - a beer mug among other things! My husband and I worked the potters wheel and made pots for plants, cups, coffee mugs and other useful items. We all made several fun pieces that all being used and enjoyed in various ways. If I could give this place 10 STARS I would! Go play with clay... .you'll be glad you did!

What a hidden gem! This place is so much fun and Emily is a fantastic teacher. And what a value. I live part of the year in Austin, TX and would pay wayyyy more for not as good an experience in TX. A dear friend joined my husband and me for classes and we all had a blast making useful and fun items. Out friend, John, liked the table work better so made the coolest items from clay slabs. A beer mug for himself, a gorgeous plant pot for his mother and several items for his wife (gifts!) and others. Amazing! My husband and I used the wheel, so we made several plant pots, coffee mugs, dishes and other useful items. It is so rewarding to use your hands to watch something come to life. It was a blast and we walked away with handmade forever treasures. Do yourself a favor. Go check this place out!
