Workshop Description:

Are you looking to try ceramics, but can’t commit to a 6-week class? This build-a-mug workshop is perfect for you.

Come spend a fun and creative session making your very own handmade mug! In this one-time workshop, you’ll learn how to design and build a mug from start to finish—no experience needed.

You’ll get to choose the perfect size, add texture, and play with underglaze colours to make it truly your own. Whether you're here to try something new or just want a cozy, hands-on experience, this is all about having fun and getting a little messy.

By the end, you'll have a mug that’s uniquely yours—perfect for morning coffee, late-night tea, or just showing off your new skills!
