Cat Clay Parties
Book a private party in our clay studio! Family groups, team-building, friend gatherings, field trips and more!
​
For clay parties, we recommend attending two sessions, one week (or so) apart. In the first session you'll create your pieces, then you'll return to glaze them the following week after they've been bisque fired. You can also choose a single session, then pick up your pieces after firing and paint them at home with acrylics or watercolors (they will not be food safe).
​
Choose between:
-
Handbuilding - Learn pinch, coil and/or slab techniques to make functional or sculptural pieces.
-
Wheel Throwing - Try your hands on the wheel for a fun activity together.
-
Project Specific - Have something particular in mind? Let us know what you're thinking and we'll help make it happen.
​
Pricing:
Our 2-hour clay sessions are $35 each, per person, and include everything except the clay. Clay can be purchased from our gift shop and can be shared among your group. A 25 lb bag costs $22 + tax, and should be enough clay for 5-10 people, depending on how large each piece is.
​
Field Trips & Special Events
Bring your class or special group in to participate in new mediums like pottery, printmaking, and collaborative projects!
​
Great for traditional schools, homeschool students, preschool groups, Girl/Boy Scouts, team-building events, and organizations.
​
We can facilitate up to 30 people at a time in either our art or clay studios, or we can come to your school to save on transportation costs. Cost varies from event to event. We offer affordable rates as low as $15 per student, depending on the project, and we are happy to assist with funding opportunities, when able.
​
You can choose from any of our projects mentioned in previous sections, or let us customize your event based on your needs.
​
Simple Space Rental
Just need a space without a guided activity? From art exhibitions to community meetings and everything in between, we love to see our space being utilized.
Our art studio is very flexible, and is able to host up to 30 seated guests for workshops, classes and similar events. For more space, we can remove tables to allow room for easels and artwork, more guests, and food. Rental includes use of tables, chairs, easels, whiteboard, large TV with HDMI for slideshows with other items (i.e. document camera, projector, etc.) available upon request.
Easels are also available to rent for various purposes to be used for your off-site occasion.
