In-Studio Wheel Parties

Book a Pottery Wheel Party with Us!

Have a group interested in trying the pottery wheel? We offer private pottery wheel parties for larger groups.

Our studio has 6 pottery wheels and can comfortably host 8–12 participants. During the party, everyone will have a chance to try both wheel throwing and hand sculpting.

How it works:

  • The group is split in half.

  • For the first 30 minutes, one group works on the pottery wheels, while the other group hand-sculpts a trinket dish.

  • After 30 minutes, the groups switch activities, so everyone experiences both!

For more information or to book your event, please email playwithclayhamilton.com.

​

Take-Home Kit

Pick up pottery to-go! We can pack a pottery painting kit or a clay building kit.

  • Kits include the supplies and materials required to complete the project as well as instructions.

  • All kits are sold and prepared in-studio.

  • Pick up the kit 1-3 days before your event.

  • Return all creations to the studio for firing.
