Make Your Own Mug

In this engaging beginner-friendly workshop, participants will create a slab-built mug designed for everyday use and enjoyment. Using a variety of stamps, textures, and personal design choices, each student can make a mug that reflects their individual style. The class emphasizes hands-on learning and creativity, providing guidance on shaping, decorating, and assembling the clay piece. Once the mug is complete, students will choose a glaze, and the studio will glaze and fire the work, producing a durable, functional piece ready to enjoy for years to come. The workshop ensures that each finished mug is safe for food, microwave, and dishwasher use, combining practicality with artistry. Sliding scale pricing makes this class accessible to a wide audience, allowing more participants to experience clay work and develop new skills. By the end of the session, students will leave with a one-of-a-kind, handbuilt mug and a deeper understanding of clay construction, surface decoration, and glazing techniques.
