Unplug, unwind, and make something by hand at our feel-good pottery workshop — no experience needed. Whether you come for the joy of making, the community, or craft coffee, this guided clay workshop is all about having fun while you sip and socialize.
Our Ceramic Mug Making Pottery Workshops are the perfect blend for tea or coffee lovers and creative spirits. Roll up your sleeves and craft your own mugs, teacups, or espresso cups from clay. Add your own flair with textures, patterns, and handles, then let us fire and glaze them for daily use. Ideal for date day, a cozy friend or family outing, or treating yourself to a creative afternoon of self-care.
Bonus: We donate $1 from every ticket to mental health initiatives. Learn more here about which non-profits we’ve given back to so far, and how you can help choose who we support next.
- Hands-On Instruction: A relaxed, hands-on pottery workshop guided by an experienced host.
- Pottery 101: Learn foundational pottery hand-building techniques like pinch pots and coils, then turn them into hand-build 1–2 ceramic coffee mugs, tea cups or espresso cups and add handles, texture, or surface designs.
- All Supplies Provided: We bring the clay, tools, and materials — you just bring yourself.
- Glazing, Kiln Firing + Shipping: Your ticket includes two professional kiln firings + glazing for one mug. You can purchase an upgrade for additional pieces here. This is essential so your pottery pieces are food-safe and waterproof. Pick between white or clear glaze, and we will take care of the rest. You'll choose between pickup or having your piece(s) shipped back to you when they're ready.
- Beginner-Friendly Vibes: Laid-back, no-pressure energy perfect for first-timers, solo guests, and friend groups alike.
Want to add color? Painting your pottery is not part of the workshop unless otherwise noted. Learn how to sign up for a dedicated Pottery Painting Session at the Pottery With a Purpose Studio in Needham, MA here.
