Ceramic class offerings will be based on Hand Building Skills—pinch pots, coil pots, slab building. Each age group will learn the basic hand building skills to prepare them for our upcoming wheel throwing classes.

IMPORTANT: When firing pieces in the kiln, Blue Door Studio is not responsible for quality damage during firing, which is sometimes an unpredictable and uncontrollable occurrence due to air bubbles, glaze applications, etc.

Please Note: Ceramic classes require sneakers, no flip-flops, and tied back hair in ponytails for safety purposes when wheel-throwing.
