Pottery Painting
We offer pottery painting 6 days a week...no appointment necessary usually. (Please keep in mind when we have classes or events scheduled we may not be able to accommodate walk ins.) We will give you basic instructions on how things work. We have lots of stamps, silk screens, stencils, Pinterest posts, painted examples and technique to help you create your masterpiece.
Glass Fusing
We start with a 6" piece and show you how to create designs on the glass blank using stringers, noodles, frit, pebbles, bits, strips and design glass. Then we can make it into a dish or just use it flat as decoration or sun catcher. You need to take a glass fusing class first with us and then you are free to do glass by appointment.

We take the last painter one hour prior to close.
