Had such a wonderful day date at Clay Co-op! 🤍 This was our first time ever taking a pottery class, and we had such a great experience. Liv, our instructor, was amazing! She was so patient, encouraging, and great at walking us through every step. We each got to create two different clay pieces while learning both throwing and sculpting techniques. Such a fun and unique experience, and definitely something we would do again. Highly recommend Clay Co-op, especially if you’re looking for a creative date idea! 🏺✨

What a great experience! Emily did a fantastic job explaining the steps and patiently went through the process with us. It was exactly what I hoped for. A no-pressure, relaxed atmosphere, and fun time to learn the basics of pottery. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour intro to Pottery class with Liz. Everyone we met at the studio was nice and supportive. Liz taught us how to make pottery and helped us improve our skills as we turned a couple of pieces. It was so relaxing!
