You can bring whatever food you like, and 2-2.5 hour parties provide a fun experience for all budding artists! Everyone will make a long-lasting creation that will hold the memory of a great birthday party! Your party will be the BEST ONE of the year!
Handbuilding Ceramic Claydate/Birthday Party
for 8 Years and above
Party guests will learn how to make a successful handbuilt project based on a pinch pot, using scoring & slipping techniques to create something awesome! Pinch pots can become almost anything, including something useful like a custom mug, or something purely fun like a cartoon character. Guests choose two colors for their projects, our staff takes care of the rest, and the host will pick up all pieces 5 weeks after the party. The birthday child will also receive a project created by the entire group!
Birthday Claydate
$400 for up to 10 guests, $30 per additional guest up to 20 guests
Includes a handbuilt clay project, time for food, and a wheel demo that becomes a group birthday gift. You can bring pizza and cake (or any other food you like,) paper goods, and decorations. (Please ask parents to drop off on time- starting late will reduce the time available for the projects.) 2 hours (with time included for pizza and cake)
For smaller groups:
You could make a daily handbuilding reservation instead of booking a private party- $35 a guest (no minimum, max 6)
Invite kids to come for a project and then go out for ice cream/cupcakes etc. later.
