About the event

🌿 Get your hands dirty and add a personal touch to your garden! In this fun and beginner-friendly clay handbuilding workshop, you’ll create up to 10 custom garden markers using durable mid-fire stoneware clay—perfect for labeling herbs, veggies, flowers, and more.


Our instructor will guide you through the basics of handbuilding, then it’s your turn to get creative! Shape, stamp, carve, and personalize each marker however you’d like—whether you go for classic plant labels, playful designs, or something totally unique.


Once your pieces are created, they’ll be kiln-fired for the first time. After that, you’ll be invited back to the studio to paint and glaze your markers however you’d like, followed by a second firing to give them a beautiful, finished look. Best of all, the project price is all-inclusive, covering both firings and your return visit to paint!


🌱 Why stoneware?

Stoneware clay is perfect for outdoor use—it’s incredibly durable and can handle temperature changes and the elements without issue, making your markers both functional and long-lasting.


🌼 Details:

• Create up to 10 garden markers

• No experience needed—perfect for all skill levels

• Includes both firings + a return visit to paint and glaze


Bring your creativity (and maybe a list of what you’re planting!) and leave with handmade pieces that will brighten up your garden all season long. 🌷


Ticket price is $7, and covers your seat and instruction.

Project price for Mid-Fire Stoneware is $55, and includes your materials, both firings, and your return visit to paint.

That includes all project materials, bisque firing, glazing, glaze firing, finishing, and sales tax, so there are no surprise add-ons or hidden fees, just create, relax, and enjoy the experience.
