She helped us so much when we hosted a birthday party here. She closed it down for our party, let us set up our own decorations, picked out music for us, set up tables for our food and gifts, and was generally quite kind and easy going. The prices were very fair as well. We loved it and will definitely be going back. Highly recommend!

I was impressed with such a large selection to chose from , the possibilities were endless . Too bad my wallet wasn't endless , the prices were a bit steep . I settled on a coffee mug wall art piece . The girls all picked animal figurines , my friend Heather just watched and assisted her girls with getting paint . The women who was working wasn't super charismatic, but admittedly, she had a full house that afternoon with no help . I was impressed on how nice our pieces turned out , the young ladies loved them too . It's not an activity I can afford to do all the time , but it was fun getting my creative juices flowing .

Walked in on a Saturday morning probably an hour after opening. They were already pretty busy and…read morehad a big children's party coming. Luckily there was space for myself and 2 gfs. Process is simple. You pick your already made ceramic piece off the shelf and someone sits down with you before you start painting. They explain all the dos and don'ts and show you samples of a good painting job and what happens when you don't later enough paint. Then you go and create your masterpiece! You're free to use whatever brushes you want and all the paint that you need. There also is no time limit of how long you sit and paint. I think my gfs and I took about 2.5 hours? All pieces are priced differently. They're very helpful if you have any questions so don't hesitate to ask! The only thing that my gfs and I didn't realize is that it takes about a week for the pieces to be "glazed". So if you're not from around the area it might be a pain to come back and get it. If you fail to pick up your pieces I believe after 3 months, they donate them. I came back at exactly the 7 day mark and they just finished glazing that morning. Thank god, because I would've been really disappointed if I had gone all that way for nothing. They also have a sign that says no need to call to ask if your piece is ready as it SHOULD be ready within a week.

We were so impressed we bought a year membership so the whole family can participate together. You come in, choose your piece, get a bit of instruction and then you are off to the races. The price includes all supplies needed and the glazing, and as many hours as you need to create your work of art. You can just keep coming back for as many hours as it takes, at NO extra cost, so that you can get it just right!!! Love that! Give it a try - bet you love it like we do!

The cost for the 8 lessons are $175, very reasonable for the 2-hour lesson each week. It covers basic drWing techniques on the first 4 lessons, then we get to practice for the next 4 lessons. If you are looking for some ME time, this is highly recommended. I look forward to the class each week. They also have other types of art classes, such as ceramics, acrylic, oil, etc. Parking is on street or in the lot across.

From the very beginning, we were offered help and guidance. We've never done anything like this before and admittedly a little skeptical that we'd all have a good time and the ability to do this. This was so much fun to do for all of us, from the beginning to the end. Oh, and I forgot to mention.....no appointment was necessary. Just walk in and have a memory making experience.

I was a little apprehensive, but went to spend time with the family. Okay, I admit it, it was fun. My wife and one daughter selected cups to paint. Another daughter selected a plate. I chose a chip/dip platter. So many options to chose, from seasonal holiday ceramics to coin banks. The owner (?) went over the process in detail. She helped us whenever we had questions. She was great throughout. We can't wait to see the final product. Not saying I'd do this again, but I wouldn't be opposed. This was a fun family outing (although I was separated from them as I had a splatter painting). I'm sure it'd be fun with a group or kids party. All the photos are pre-firing in the kiln.

They offer all sorts of classes along with walk in hours to create something wonderful. They have many options for projects and ideas. A few winters ago they offered a Christmas truck class which was a blast. They also do birthday parties in their back room. With covid I am not sure if they are back into that just yet. They do offer a summer camp for kids and those finished projects they post on Facebook look so good. They are following all covid guidelines. When the pandemic first hit they pivoted their business to take home kits. They have an online shop where you can buy the kits. They were the cutest kits. Customer service is amazing here. They love their customers and business. They are true artists so if you need help with technique or glaze selections they will definitely help you get your finished product to look amazing. It is an affordable activity even for the littlest artist. I love this locally owned and operated business. This is way better than the franchise options in the area.

Went here for my boyfriend for a date night and had a great time!…read more The store is really fun and had a huge selection of paintable ceramics from plates to massive lighthouses. We settled on a piggy bank for me and a "kitchen creature" (an animal that holds a sponge) that my boyfriend turned into a plant pot. There were some kiddos in the room which makes sense, but it was still a nice date spot. The woman helping us was very kind and helpful and gave us the whole run down. Ended up paying about 60 dollars for the two of us which is kinda pricy but worth it for the unique experience of making something of our own without having to start from scratch. Over all a fun place to stretch your creative muscle no matter the age or occasion :)

We did a little date night at The Clay Room and had a good time painting some ceramics. When you…read morecome in, you pay a fee for each item you want to paint, and then you get as long as you need to paint it. We got there pretty late (turns out just an hour isn't enough!) and they let us come in at a later date to finish our work, with no additional fees. There's additional space downstairs, but I didn't check it out. The employees are quite friendly, though our experience was entirely self-directed. There are plenty of people chatting while crafting; there are quite a few university students, probably due to the student discount. We ended up painting and firing three pieces. Sadly, one piece got chipped after firing. They did refire it, but we had to come back another time to pick it up. There's a pretty wide selection of ceramics, with a few "specialty" pieces, but it's worth noting they're Made in China designs, if you care about that sort of thing. Overall I would probably go back, with a bit more time in mind - there are plenty of great restaurants in the area to decompress, too!

The selection for paint-a-pot was smaller than expected, but we were still able to find items to work on and had a good time. One thing that could definitely improve was the guidance and instructions provided.

Even so, it was a creative and enjoyable outing.

Walk ins were welcome and we were greeted kindly and explained the process right away. Quite a selection of pieces to choose from with a reasonable price range. They allowed each person to choose 6 colors of paint. My only complaint was the color choices were limited, you could only choose the paints with the black dots, but we made it work. They supplied everything one would need. We were there for so long we seen a shift change, lol! But both workers were so nice! Overall, the place was clean, they had enough tables and chairs for everyone, and they even hold parties or events. Our pieces look a little dull currently but we will be back in approx. 1-3 weeks for our finished, bright and glossy plates! We will definitely be returning and recommending this place!
