Your group will glaze pottery previously made right here at Little Creek Studios. Then together we will work as a team to fire the work and enjoy this unpredictable, and surprising technique. The work will be yours to take at the end of the day.

Wheel Throwing or Handbuilding Experience

Our three hour wheel throwing OR handbuilding workshops will give your group opportunities to make a few lovely pieces or a specific project. Participants will enjoy the making process and spending time getting a little muddy together, then choose how they'd like their work finished. Little Creek Studios will complete the project and take care of both necessary firings to complete the process. The pieces will then be available for pick up in the Frederick area.

Join us for an exciting raku firing workshop and create stunning pieces with unique finishes. Experience the thrill of this ancient technique in a hands-on environment.

A clay teapot is centered on a workbench surrounded by various pottery tools and materials. The surface around the teapot is scattered with other pottery-related objects, such as cups and brushes. The floor appears to be concrete, and there are a pair of shoes visible at the bottom right corner of the image.

The ceramic wheel throwing workshop was fantastic! I learned so much and had a great time creating my own pieces.
