Love the pet stained glass class!!! It was a 3 hour workshop for $165 plus tips. When we arrived,…read morethe design was already created and each piece of glass was already cut and grinded smooth. We watched the demonstrations and proceeded to taping and soldering the glass pieces. Everything we needed was provided including safety supplies such as glasses, heat gloves, and masks. The instructor was very knowledgeable and gave detailed demonstrations. She was balancing doing something in another room. I wished she went around to check on each person, but we could hail her over when we had questions. We learned during the event that the metal used for soldering is made of 40% lead. I definitely hung the finished piece away from pets and children. And we wash our hands every time it's touched. Sign up on their website. They can't be contacted via phone. When I needed to reschedule the class, I did not receive responses to my email or website query. So we went in person to make the schedule change. The event was a ton of fun! The design of our pets captured their essence very well. Great activity to do together with a group of people if you can afford it and like crafting independently in an intro class.

If you are looking to learn and explore your ceramics . This is the place! I thought I was going to…read moremake a couple of cups in a week then I realized it takes much longer than a week to make. I decided to get a membership. I came to just make a few cups but over the months being at the studio I met a bunch of people and realized there is such great community. I love how the studio lets you make what ever you want not limiting your creativity. I think that if you are new to ceramic, think you can just make pieces in less than a week. You will be disappointed. Ceramics takes time and patience. This studio has a 24hr membership that makes it easy to come on your own time.

Instructor was great but I wish that he would let us do a little at a time instead of watching the whole demo then we start. Because by the end of the demo, we forgot all the steps and he had to re-explain it. That part took lot of time but we did had a great time! Time flew by when making pottery. When we were done, we get to pick which glaze color we wanted. The glaze didn't turn out to the color we wanted, but it's okay. Took about 3-4 weeks for the glaze to be ready for pick up. Parking: meter parking on the street FYI: yes you can still make pottery with long nails. They will show you how

The vibe is community, support, growth and education, vs the "churn and burn" mentality of other studios. The teachers are all excellent and owner/teacher Amy has extensive knowledge in all areas of ceramics. I have learned wheel throwing, hand building, slip cast mold making, glaze formulation, nerikomi, marbling, mono-printing, and luster applications--just to name a few! The studio is generous with provided tools, a huge reference library, oxides, glazes, storage areas and open studio hours. This is truly a community and I've met some amazing people here. Highly recommend!

Beautiful clean space with a TON of glaze options and clay bodies. Lots of wheels and hand building space and love that it is 24/7, so you can work late at night if that is when you are feeling creative. Also in my opinion the kiln turnaround time is pretty quick. It is always exciting looking through the shelves and finding your pieces. I recommend starting out with a class or two so you can experience everything before committing to membership. Lots of really great teachers too.

As someone new to pottery who lives nearby, The Pottery Studio has been a great resource. I was never interested in pottery because I have a lot of hobbies and didn't want to add another, but my neighbor asked if I'd be interested and I decided to join her. We have taken three classes so far. The ability to reschedule a class is really helpful when I had a conflict for a regular class session. Emailing to get a makeup class was totally easy and very friendly. All of their policies are clearly spelled-out when you sign up. The only real gap is not receiving an email reminder for a new class with the door code. It hasn't been a problem for me, but with all the missing folks I've noticed on the first day of class, this seems like something that could be automated at low to no cost (and add to their calendars) to get students to the studio on-time. There have been some long waits for kiln times. I have some greenware that sat on the shelf from week two - week four of my hand building class. If I weren't signed up for another class, I would have to ask for access to get my work and hope it would be ok to glaze them. A lot of bisque ware gets abandoned, which is a bummer. I wonder if that is partially the cause or if the journey is the destination for many folks. We love taking classes with Michelle. And we have had make up classes with Laura and Angelica. We have watched Skyler be really helpful and patient with students and members. The ability to come in during non-class times is great. Unlimited access to class clay is fantastic. I wish people cleaned up after themselves and followed the signage more, because I find myself cleaning up after others a lot, but that's what you get in a community environment. I've interacted with a few members who are very open to sharing knowledge. Many other members are working ceramicists and are clearly locked-in, so I try to stay out of their way. Seeing so much of their beautiful work is inspiring. Parking is usually fine, but I am glad I don't live on that street because I do see how it could be annoying. I would be aware of it before I moved in because there is a big sign painted on the sign of this building. It's not stealth or secret. The person in the other review who was recently complaining must be new to the neighborhood because this studio has been open for quite a long time and, while maybe some folks can be described as entitled or whatever, most of the members and students I've encountered are very nice, considerate, and a very diverse group of people. As for the comments about Marshall. I haven't met him, but I did hear his interactions with some staff and realized that he must be the owner (then looked him up to confirm). While not bombastic, his tone didn't sound great when directed at the kiln loader. It was definitely a "yes, Chef" presence. But I've only seen/heard him once in over three months, so it has been a non-issue for me. From a student perspective, if you read the policies and agree to them, there should not be any reason to interact with Marshall. Once class starts, your space is taken and they can't resell it to someone else. I mean, it's pretty obvious why moving you to another month or splitting months doesn't make sense.

It's so gritty and makes everything come out in varying shades of brown, no matter what glaze you use (perhaps the glaze isn't amazing either, I'm not sure). I'm concerned about the management or owner - they can't seem to retain good teachers long term, and that is a bad sign to me. I've heard from classmates & members that the owner has a very unkind and aggressive management style. If what I've heard is true, I'd hesitate to continue to support this business.

What really elevated the experience, though, was everything beyond the crafting itself. The studio is beautiful and spotless, the staff were attentive and genuinely kind, and it's clear a lot of care went into the little details: a ceramic magnet to paint while our pieces cured, eclectic snacks to munch on, and a keepsake printed photo to take home. The whole space felt warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in. It's rare to find a place that hits just right in both the craft and the experience around it. We'll definitely be back and would highly recommend Crafty LA to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing activity!
