Looking for a unique date night idea near Boston? Join us for a beginner-friendly pottery workshop in our Needham studio designed just for couples and besties. You’ll learn simple hand-building techniques and create up to two waterproof, food-safe pottery pieces per person. No experience required — just bring your favorite human and get ready for muddy hands, laughs, and plenty of memories.
P.S. Your ticket admits two people. One ticket = one 2 hour clay date.

- Admission for Two Guests: One ticket admits two people.
- A Refreshing Drink: Enjoy a complimentary non-alcoholic beverage from our curated selection (1 per guest).
- Hands-On Instruction: A relaxed, hands-on pottery workshop guided by an experienced host.
- Pottery 101: Learn foundational hand-building techniques like pinch pots and coils, then turn them into functional pottery with pieces like mugs, bowls, vases, planters or whatever you can dream up. We’ll also show you how to add fun touches like handles or texture.
- All Supplies Provided: We have the clay, tools, and other materials to make and decorate your pottery — you just bring you and your date.
- Glazing + Kiln Firing: Our team will glaze + kiln-fire up to two pottery pieces per person in clear or white so it is glossy, durable, waterproof & food-safe. Pieces will be ready for pickup in 6-8 weeks. Shipping is available for an additional fee here.
- Aprons: Clay washes off with water, but aprons are provided so you can keep the mess to a minimum.
- Beginner-Friendly Vibes: Laid-back, no-pressure energy perfect for first-timers and the "I'm not creative" crowd.
- Feel-Good Energy: Enjoy a welcoming, community-centered experience hosted at unique local spots — from breweries to plant shops and cozy cafés — that make the experience feel extra special.
Want to add color? Painting is not included and available as a separate add-on. You can return to the studio for a dedicated painting session or purchase a painting upgrade at checkout.
Date Night Pottery Workshop: Think of this as clay playtime, but make it date night. You and your person will get hands-on with clay, learning easy techniques to whip up mugs, bowls, mini vases and more. Expect a little mess, a lot of laughs, and a one-of-a-kind way to spend time together that beats dinner-and-a-movie any day. Learn something new side by side, and leave with pieces (and memories) you’ll treasure for years to come.
