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!

My two friends and I made a 3:30pm appointment here last Sunday, and when we arrived it was pretty full of crafty folks. We were able to choose whatever project we wanted from about 12 choices, and within those there were dozens of different patterns to choose from. All of the options were so cute! I opted for a bottle opener with a wolf nail art, so I got to choose my paint colors, string colors, and the wood board it would all go on. The owner and his wife were also incredibly kind and had helpful tips and tricks. It took my friends and me about 2 hours to complete our projects. And the best part about Extra? It has a great selection of wine and beer! I sipped on a Maxline Raspberry Basil while painting, hammering, and stringing. I can't wait to go back and make another thing!
