The instructors were obviously very experienced with teaching the class. All of the instructions were simple, and we were able to do the activity while also chatting away. It's also very close to many Pearl St. restaurants, so we were able to head to early dinner after the class! There are also so many gorgeous pieces for purchase if you're looking for a unique and special gift. Happy crafting! Thanks for a great evening!

Each week we get a short lesson focused on one piece, then we are let loose to create, throw, trim, and glaze. During the days between lessons you can come in to practice. Sue has the best teaching style and is positive and encouraging. The atmosphere is amazing with lots of great people and music and you are allowed to bring drinks and food, if you wish. I love the therapy of clay and when a piece turns out, I'm grateful and surprised. Chewy is the studio dog and greets everyone with love and good will before he goes to nap. It's a place you want to be.

A group of 10 of us went to Smokestack Pottery for a fun pottery night out and it was great! Sue…read moreand Joey were there to help us, and after a short demonstration, we were freed to make our pieces. I took a semester of ceramics in high school and while I was never good, the muscle memory was apparently still there because I picked it up again relatively quickly. And they turned out way better than the things I ever made! Must be the good teaching and the smaller lumps of clay :) Sue and Joey were very patient and helpful when it came to centering, providing instruction, and helping us fix our pieces. We were allowed to make 4 pieces of pottery within an approximately 2 hour period, after which we cleaned up and picked our glazes. Music played throughout the session and some cheese and crackers were provided for snacks - it really was wonderful and relaxing. The pieces should be available for pickup in about 4 weeks I think - hopefully they turn out well! I've already talked to some of my other friends and hope to go back again. It's normally $35 for a session where you can make 4 pieces, and $5 per piece after. They also have 7 week classes for $200. I definitely recommend stopping by, it was tons of fun!

She was expert, not just at glass, but also at teaching, and was great at working around my mobility limitations. My friend and I both decided to make glass bowls, and after these annealed over a 24-hour time frame, we ended up with lovely keepsakes. Expect to learn a lot in a very short time. The Experience is a little pricey, but worth it, especially considering the individual focus. Don't rush off--you'll want to explore the Gallery and pick up a few treasures (use your 7% discount the day of your Experience) and seek sale items. I fully expect to book another Experience!
