Workshops

What is a Workshop?

"I have always wanted to try pottery!" This is one of the most commonly heard statements when I am at an art or craft event. For this reason I have created group workshops where you can gather your friends, have fun and create art.


In every workshop participants create 1-2 custom pieces of functional pottery. All supplies and tools are provided.  Each participant is able to personalize their artwork through the patterns and/or colors they choose.


Workshops are broken down into two (2) sessions, one for creating your masterpieces and another for glazing. The second session takes place approximately 6-8 weeks after the first.


The completed pieces are food safe, functional and a great as gifts or a lovely addition to your home. 



Workshop Samples

    What do I need to know?

    How long is a workshop, how many friends can I have join me? Please tell me more.

    Each workshop is a bit different. The finished artwork which is ALL functional will be unique.  Here are a few guidelines to help determine if Pottery by Carrie workshop is right for you.


    • The number of attendees for a workshop needs to be between 5-8 participants. 


    • These workshops take place in my Home Studio located on a lower level of the home. You will need to walk through the home and navigate a flight of stairs to participate in the workshop.


    • All workshop participants need to create the same type of item. Each persons art will look different when completed but you do need to work from the same lesson plan.


    • Workshops are currently evenings only (M-F) and can begin between 5:30pm-7:00pm 


    • Workshop sessions run from 2-3 hours depending on the items being created and the artists. 


    • You may get messy but that was the best part of being a kid, right? Dress accordingly.


    • There is a small dog on the premises and many times joins the workshops. He's friendly and can be kept out of the workshop area if necessary.
