Clay Play | No Experience Needed

Self-guided handbuilding time (think elevated play-doh)

1 h
40 US dollars
E Street

Service Description

This is not a lesson, this is self-guided clay time! No wheel use permitted, handbuilding only! While full instruction will NOT be provided during these sessions, you will be provided with visual aids and project suggestions! This hour is the perfect way to decompress from a full day of work, have some solo quiet time, unplug from your phone, or get creative with your kiddo! Each clay play session will be 60 minutes - you will be provided with 2lbs of clay, have access to our handbuilding tables, studio tools, stamps, and cookie cutters. Projects will be of your choosing and you will work at your own pace. That said, please bear in mind that this is a one-time session. The finishing of one (1) piece is included, additional pieces may be finished for a small fee of $10 per piece - this will cover the cost of the labor and materials associated with glazing and firing. After your session, we will do all of the nitty gritty extra steps for you! This includes us drying your piece, bisque firing it, glazing it in the color of your choice (from our available studio glazes), as well as glaze fired. By the time it is complete, your piece will be food, drink, microwave, and dishwasher safe! Setup/cleanup must be factored into your 60 minute designated studio time, it will not be done for you.


Upcoming Sessions


Cancellation Policy

This business is owned and operated by one person, as well as a small selection of part-time instructors. As such, Pinch runs solely on appointment based scheduling, and your mindfulness + consideration of our time and resources is greatly appreciated. With that in mind, when you book a session with us, you are not only supporting a small business, but we are also holding a space for you within our (limited) booking calendar. This means that your scheduled time slot is no longer able to be booked by anyone else. Rescheduling: Lessons, classes, and drop-in time may be rescheduled one (1) time, free of charge, but must be done at least 48 hours prior to the start of the scheduled session.  Cancellations: Your health and well-being is very important to us! Lessons, classes, and drop-in time may be canceled at any time for a full refund, with no cancellation fee, up until 1 week prior to the scheduled session.  For cancellations made within 1 week (and prior to 48hrs) of the scheduled session, there is a fee equal to 50% of the cost of the original booking.  Cancellations made within 48hrs of the scheduled session are non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled.  ​Workshop tickets are non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled. ​Private events are non-refundable, but may be rescheduled if provided with notice of 10 0r more days. ​ Party Modifications: No refunds will be made for those in your party unable to attend. However, if desired, a voucher can be provided for a future communal session, so long as we were notified that they would not be in attendance, prior to the start of the session. If we are not notified ahead of time, then they will be considered a no call, no show, and therefore they will no longer be eligible for a voucher.  Please note: This policy does not change for unexpected life events, obligations, or a change in your plans.   There is absolutely no refund , rescheduling, or vouchers provided for no shows.​ You will find that many small pottery studios, similar to Pinch, have a strict no-refund policy.  In an effort to keep things fair to all (ourselves included), NO exceptions will be made. We greatly appreciate your respect and understanding.
