Private Pottery Events

A hands-on, pottery making class for birthdays, team building, and family gatherings, right here in Irvine. No experience needed; we guide everyone step by step and each participant gets to make 2 handmade pottery pieces!

Group Size

Private classes/events available for 6 or more guests. We can host our regular one-time pottery class for up to 30 people.

Easy Booking

No deposit required. Pricing per person is the same as our regular group class. We will create a private class book link for your event.

Flexible Times

We’ll work with you to find a custom date & time, it doesn’t have to be one of our regular slots.

Bring your group together for a relaxing, creative pottery session in our cozy Old Town Irvine studio. Guests learn how to make 2 pottery pieces, one on the wheel and one hand-built, with our guidance. Great for first-timers and seasoned makers alike.

After your event, we dry, fire, and glaze your pieces. They’ll be ready for pickup in about 4 weeks, finished with lead-free, food-safe glaze, ready for use!

Looking for something specific?

We can also host our Matcha Bowl or Vase Building workshops as a private event for groups of up to 12 people.

Enjoy the Class

Arrive a few minutes early, and we’ll take it from there. Our instructors guide everyone through making their own piece, no experience required. Expect an easygoing, social vibe with lots of laughter as participants try to get the hang of the potter's wheel and come up with creative (and sometimes wacky) hand-building pieces. Our class makes for a memorable event for teams and celebrations.
