Play & Create with Clay
Whether you’re brand new to clay or returning to a long-lost love, at Joy Lab our classes and workshops are designed to spark creativity and calm your nervous system—no perfection required.
At Joy Lab Ceramics, we offer both structured multi-week series and one-time workshops to meet you wherever you are. From whimsical pinch pots to thoughtful surface design, each experience is an invitation to slow down, connect with your hands (and heart), and enjoy the magic of making something from the earth.
Classes
Our classes run throughout the year and are perfect for anyone looking to build a consistent clay practice.
Whether you're starting from scratch or ready to refine your technique, these multi-week series offer supportive instruction, skill progression, and space to find your unique creative voice.
The starting point for most people, Intro to Ceramics.
This is the perfect place to start to get to know the studio, and begin to familiarize yourself with clay, or refresh your skills if you are jumping back in.
Workshops
Our workshops are playful, project-based experiences designed for all levels—no clay experience needed.
Ranging from one to three hours, these sessions are perfect for trying something new, gathering with friends, or squeezing in a dose of creativity without a big commitment.
Each workshop focuses on a specific project like pinch pot planters, seasonal decor, or textured trays, so you’ll walk away with something beautiful and handmade (by you!).
Whether you're celebrating a birthday, planning a creative date, or just craving a screen-free reset, these workshops are your invitation to slow down, get messy, and have some serious fun with clay.
