Private Parties & Group Events

Hunter Pottery Studio · Fountain Valley, California

Make something together. Celebrate a birthday, plan a girls’ night out, or bring your group in for a relaxed pottery experience. Beginners are welcome.

From $65.00 per person. 4–10 participants. Clay, glazing and firing included.

Two hours of pottery, plus up to one additional hour for cleanup. Guests may stay during that extra hour. You may bring food and drinks.

Guests choose glaze colors and the studio does the glazing. Finished projects are ready for pickup two weeks after the party.

Wheel throwing

Get a friendly introduction to the pottery wheel. Learn the basics of centering clay and shaping simple forms, such as a small bowl or cup, with guidance along the way.

Everyone will have a chance to learn and explore, and each guest’s experience and results will be different.

Handbuilding

Shape clay with your hands using beginner-friendly techniques such as pinching, coiling or working with slabs. It’s a relaxed way to try pottery together, with room for everyone’s own ideas.

We’ll discuss the project with you when reviewing your request.

A little bit of both

Try handbuilding and wheel throwing in the same two-hour pottery session. Make smaller projects by hand, then explore shaping pre-centered clay on the wheel with friendly guidance along the way.

We’ll plan the mix with your group when reviewing your request.

Request a private party
