A Peaceful, Creative Afternoon

Afternoon Clay is a longer, more leisurely session designed for artistic self-expression and connection. You’ll receive one pound of clay to create whatever you like, paint it, and carve your name on the bottom. We’ll fire your piece, ready for pickup in 3–4 weeks.

With no formal instruction, you’re free to work at your own pace while chatting and sharing ideas with others in the studio. Everyone is welcome — whether you’re a retiree, stay-at-home parent, visiting the area, or simply enjoying an afternoon off.

Take a break from your routine and enjoy a creative community space that feels like your own third place.
