Groupon is not required. Call and make reservation. Great event! Just enough instruction and oversight without being stifling.

I had a groupon for a 2hr wheel pottery class here. I was part of a group of 6 people, and we had so much fun! None of us had any experience, but the instructor was very patient and helpful. We threw and glazed two pieces. Great experience. Everyone should try it!

Early Oct 2020 - instructor Martha has a cold/cough which made me uncomfortable visiting. Wish I had known of such cold so I would have rescheduled the class instead of coming 1hr+ all the way out to Clearwater early in the morning. At least inform guests ahead of time so we can make adjustments and come another time would be considerate. A lot of people have underlying conditions and cannot take the risk of being around a simple cold, tbd on if it was just a simple cold.As of everything else - Purchased a Groupon for the 1-class. You get (2) 1lb pieces of clay to make 2 small pieces on the wheel, a heat torch to dry it, and glaze to paint it afterwards. Total expect to be there for about 3 hours. The instructor helps you make the two pieces rotating amongst guests, then you dry and glaze on your own. Pick up is 3 weeks later. This is a bit different compared to the Clay Center in St pete simply b/c youre only visiting 2x (create then pick up) rather than 3x (create, paint, pick up). I couldnt tell you which one is better for the sake of pottery but this was convenient not having to make the trip one less time.Making clay pottery is a lot more difficult than I expected. Id suggest looking up what sort of piece you want to make beforehand, typical suggestions I heard were: cup w/o the handle, bowl, planter, colander, Christmas tree decor, or something abstract. Keep in mind anything you mold, youre able to carve after while glazing.The instructor Martha herself, minus the cold, was very patient and helpful and managed helping the 6 of us well.Logistics - theres 6 wheels, so 6 people in a class plus 1 instructor. Wearing a mask is no longer required so other guests did not. Theres about 2ft between each artist.I would have rated this as a 5 star had masks been required for all guests and had the instructor inform us of a sickness beforehand so that I would come another time when she was feeling better / not coughing. The instructor wore a cloth face mask, face shield, and gloves. Call ahead to clarify if youre concerned.

We had a Groupon for here with a class of six people. Nate was a great instructor and we had a lot of fun!

My husband and I bought the groupon and had our first pottery class together with Martha. We had a blast!! Martha is so patient and kind and a really fun instructor. She really takes the time to teach you the art of pottery. You can tell she loves what she does. We loved it so much that we are going back and bringing some friends with us. I highly recommend this studio and am looking forward to making this a frequent activity that my husband and I can enjoy doing together.

Had an amazing time definitely will go again!The instructor Nate was the best.

We had a great experience. I was a beginner and felt very comfortable with the process.

Amazing time, let us stay for 3 hours to finish painting. Very instructional, very patient, I highly recommend.
