Choose from a wide selection of ceramic pieces then bring them to life with vibrant glazes and your imagination.
We add a clear glaze over your work to seal any missed spots and makes any functional piece food/dinnerware safe!
Create stunning designs by layering colorful glass pieces to make unique jewelry, coasters, suncatchers, nightlights and so many more ideas waiting to be made!
Pieces that are turned into a dish or votive require an additional kiln firing.
We can only hold finished pieces for 3 months and will make up to 3 attempts to contact you.
After that, unclaimed work will be considered abandoned and disposed/donated.
We are not responsible for lost or damaged pieces due to the nature of a pottery studio, though we always do our best.
We cannot ship projects, so please plan accordingly—thank you for understanding!
Arrange colorful tiles, beads, and stones to craft beautiful, textured art like frames, tiles, plaques, coasters, and many more shapes to design!
We will give you a grouting kit (grout, stirring stick, gloves, and instructions)
This is the only walk-in project you can take home day of!
Shape and mold clay into personal creations from bowls, figurines, anything and anywhere your imagination takes you!
You may glaze the same day before we put it into the kiln (single-fire) or wait 2-3 weeks to come back and glaze your creation after it comes out of the kiln (bisque & glaze fire)
Bring your favorite drink and enjoy a fun, guided art experience with friends, family, or a date. Our workshops feature a variety of creative projects, including pottery painting, canvas painting, and clay hand-building, with step-by-step instruction in a relaxed, social atmosphere.

Give the gift of creativity this holiday season—or treat yourself—with our Holiday 1x Wheel Workshop at Art Dept Studios! This one-time pottery wheel class is a fun, relaxing way to experience the joy of throwing clay on the wheel.
Participants will make up to three pieces during the 90-minute session, led by an instructor who will demonstrate and guide everyone through the process.
Your class includes:
• 3 pounds of clay per person
• Kiln firing (bisque and glaze)
• Instructor-led wheel throwing
• Studio glazes and 2-hour studio time (for painting your final pieces)

After your class, your pieces will be bisque-fired in our kiln, and you will be contacted in about 2–3 weeks when they are ready to return for glazing—just in time for Christmas or Hanukkah. Please do not call to check on your pieces unless it has been over three weeks or if your pickup arrangements have changed.
