    So cute! Great vibes and friendly staff. It gets a little pricey after your first piece thrown, but I think it is a fun experience nonetheless. Thank you!!!

    If you're looking for a great experience or the ultimate mommy-daughter bonding experience that's equal parts messy and magical, look no further than Oasis Pottery! Our three-week class was like stepping into a creative wonderland--imagine a pottery wheel and two enthusiastic hands that may or may not have been more interested in splattering clay than actually making anything. We painted, we fired, and then came the grand finale of adding finishing touches. I'm convinced our creations could be mistaken for modern art--if modern art were a bit lopsided and had a few extra splatters. But hey, that's what gives it character, right? The best part? Watching my daughter embrace her inner Picasso while I tried desperately to channel my artistic side (and failing spectacularly). We created memories that will last longer than our slightly wobbly pottery. If you want a date that's messy, hilarious, and filled with laughter, grab your favorite little sidekick and head to Oasis Pottery. Just remember to leave your worries--and your expectations of perfection--at the door!

    Work I've completed at Oasis Pottery

    I've had such great experiences at Oasis Pottery! I've taken several wheel throwing classes over the last few months with several instructors, including Martha, Jason, and Gwen. They've all been extremely helpful with teaching me the basics of wheel throwing, trimming, glazing, and attaching handles to mugs, to the point where I can now do these things successfully and independently. (Not to mention, it's so much fun!) Wheel throwing classes start off with a demonstration on how to center the clay on the wheel, open your piece, pull up the walls, and shape your piece. Everyone gets 3 pounds of clay to work with over 1.5-2 hours, and the instructors check in on everyone to give advice on adjustments to our technique, fix mishaps (to the extent possible), and ultimately help us create a piece we can take home and love. As other reviews said, definitely bring hair ties and expect to get clay on your clothes! No one said it's a clean activity, but it's definitely a fun one. I haven't tried hand building classes yet, but from what I observed, instructors are helpful and attentive to a similar extent! In terms of the vibe, both the staff and members are highly supportive, encouraging, and willing to offer guidance, which was comforting to me as someone entirely new to the craft. Taking a pottery class would make such a fun date night or group activity, and I'd definitely recommend this studio!

    Such a fun work outing! We came here to celebrate the end of our work year. It could not have been a better choice. Pottery was extremely relaxing and regardless of your expertise the teacher is extremely patient and can help fix any mistakes you make along the way. She was so supportive and encouraging. I can't wait to see the final product when we pick them up in a few weeks. They have different solid colors you can choose from that they dip the clay in. There is also amazing pieces throughout the studio that you can look at.

    I finally booked an introductory class to pottery throwing and I'm really glad that I did! Oasis Pottery has a user friendly website where you create an account and can select a class and time. I booked a 5pm class at their studio to get my hands dirty with clay. As expected, the class was relaxing and fun. We had Jason as an instructor. Very laid back, clear speaker, with thoughtful feedback and insights. He answered all of our many questions and reassured us when we felt like we needed some extra help. His instruction was detailed, but since it was my first time I didn't grasp all the information he was sharing. I'd recommend coming back with low expectations about what you'll be creating because it's definitely a skill that takes time to develop. I started off my first piece then quickly learned I'd go through much more fresh clay because it kept falling apart again and again. Some tips: If you have long hair like me bring a hair tie!! I made the mistake of leaving my hair down and things get messy. Wear some clothes you don't mind getting wet and muddy. Also, don't forget to bring some water. It's a 2 hour long class. Overall, I had a great time. Learned a lot and I'm sure I'll be back very soon! Thanks to the team at Oasis Pottery for being great! Also, I loved the music playlist!

    Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! That's all I can say about this experience I've had at Oasis! The session was fun and educational and exciting. Made friends and it was sooo calming and a great time!

    My girlfriends surprised me with a class at Oasis Pottery for my birthday. They told me getting ahold of the owner to schedule an appointment was difficult and she was not responsive, but they were able to secure 3 seats for us the day before we took the class for wheel throwing. As soon as we arrived, we put on aprons and sat at a potter's wheel while the owner/instructor (Martha) demonstrated how to first operate the wheel and then how to center the clay. She then proceeded to show us how to form the clay so we could get rid of air bubbles, which eventually would lead to forming our own piece. Thankfully, the class fee included 3 lbs. of clay, so we had 3 chances to center the clay and make a piece. I messed up my second piece due to moving my finger while it was spinning, which caused a hole at the base. Unfortunately, I was not able to salvage the piece. Heads up, operating a potter's wheel takes a lot of upper body strength. Over time, we all felt our hands and arms getting more fatigued. Also, at the end, my back was sore from hovering over the wheel to center the clay. However, the experience was extremely fun and rewarding, and the instructor was always available to help. There was always that fear of messing up your clay after forming it into a good shape (happened to me on my second try), but most folks in class also had the same struggles. Once we finished our pieces, we were able to pick a paint color for each one (there were about 7-8 paint colors to choose from, and Martha would do the painting). We were told the pieces would be ready in 2 weeks. Overall, this was such a fun experience and my interest in wheel throwing is piqued. I have more respect for the folks who make it look easy.

    I took the intro class and had such a great time! i've been wanting to learn pottery making for a long time and so glad this crossed my path so i was able to jump in. will definitely try to continue it as a hobby because it was very enjoyable

    I attended a private group class for pottery throwing and would generally recommend it for anyone looking for a fun group activity or date night. The studio is eclectic and inspiring with all of the wonderful mess that comes with art. For our session - the instructor teaches the basics of how the wheel works and explaining and demonstrating the techniques used to center and shape the clay (which is much harder than it looks!) After that, each person was given three 1lb pieces of clay for three total attempts at making whatever we desire while the instructor offers help. At the end of the class we picked a glaze for any piece we choose to keep, and will come back in a few weeks to pick up our beautiful creations! Overall the experience was a good time I would recommend. I took off one star because, like others have said, it can be tough to get a response back when trying to set anything up (I had originally texted about wanting to sign up for a class six months earlier and never got a response). I also didn't feel like the instructor was particularly attentive when it came to our "free time" - she was doing other things throughout the studio and we'd have to call her over if we needed help with anything - in my opinion it would have been nice for her to observe and offer insight into how to fix the specific mistakes we were making so we could learn.

Not until I found Art Classes for kids. My husband and I purchased the sibling boxes for our kiddos, which came with a week-long set of artist-inspired projects, ranging from sculpting, sketching, painting and included art-supplies and a daily Zoom link for our kids to join-in on live instruction from Artist-Owner Kim Bavington and her team!

These classes show that anyone can become a great artist and that art talent is what you learn from great instructors, not what you are born with. The art that was produced by our young kids is up on our walls and people who come over ask us which artists we are collecting. We tell them, "We collect our kids' art!" This isn't just art training, it's also art history because our kids learned about historically famous artists and then learned more about them by creating art in their style. These are great classes to show your kids that they can create extraordinary art quickly and enjoyably. One of our kids was very excited about participating in the online camp but the other was not that interested. After the first day everyone was a fan and looking forward to creating more art. Kim has come up with an incredible combination of inspiration, technique, and education to create a best practice for how art should be taught to children. What we have discovered is that in Art Classes for Kids everyone is an artist. Thanks Kim and your whole team!
