Testimonial: "My kids had a great time taking pottery lessons from Ann. She made it easy to learn and be creative in each class. This was a true hands on experience from using the pottery wheel and creating different objects like bowls, plates, and pendants, sanding, and then decorating and painting. Ann was extremely accommodating of my kids different ages. Her hands on guidance as well as her patience made the classes a success. Each class was different from the next and held the kids attention. I was pleasantly surprised to see them stand at the wheel and table for the duration of the class, always eager to dive into the lesson. We love using our plates and bowls for snacks, jewelry holders, and decoration. Thank you Ann for the lovely, creative experience." Jordana L.

WORKSHOPS AND PARTIES:
Gather a group of friends or a group of kids together, give them clay and see what happens!
WORKSHOPS can be as simple as a group of people together for two hours with clay and tools, and let the magic begin. Clay projects can be handbuilt or thrown on the wheel. Pieces are then dried, bisque fired and glazed for the participants, to be picked up or delivered at a later date. When participants would like to be part of the full process, a second date can be set for the glazing. Pieces are then fired for the second time and completed.
PARTIES: BIRTHDAY OR CLAY PARTIES are a whole lot of fun too. Gather a group of kids together with clay and it is amazing what will develop. Let Ann come to your home with clay and tools and for 1-1/2 to 2 hours your party group will be entertained, with an advantage. When the pieces are dried and fired, your child and their friends will have a permanent product from the party. Projects often include wheel thrown bowls, handbuilt bowls, pinch pot bowls, mugs, soap dishes, vases and little sculptures.
PRICING OF PARTIES: Childrens parties are often priced at $50/child, depending on the number of children included. Groups of 6 or more may have discounts applied. This includes set up, materials, tools, firings and glazing.
Adult parties are also in the same price range.
Parties can be held in your home or at Studio 209 in the Alton Mill.
