Come to Claystation Studio for a pottery experience with ceramicist Gioia. During this workshop you and your partner will learn how to throw on the wheel, creating your own ceramic piece, and finish the day by imprinting a beautiful hug vase together.
Gioia will start by teaching you the basics of wheel throwing, guiding you through the process. Whether you're new to pottery or have some experience, you'll be able to create your own unique pieces.
Next, you'll move on to the Hug Vase activity. Gioia will have thrown a large vase for you the day before. Together with your loved one, you'll hug each other around the vase, leaving a physical imprint. You might have recently seen this on the viral Kendall and Kylie Jenner trend!
Gioia and her team will take care of firing and glazing of your hug vase, and thrown pieces. In three weeks, they will be ready for you to collect and take home.
