The pair will be able to make 1 plate and 1 cup on the wheel (with attachments ie. handles for the cup)

We accept private classes of 4 pax and above for no extra charge. Please message us on Instagram to secure your slot. We require full payment upon booking. 

FAQs:

Can I bring food or drinks? 

Yes you can bring food or drinks. You can even order from the dozens of restaurants around the Cubao Expo compound and it will be delivered to you during your pottery session. Please give us a heads up so the teacher is informed :)

Are there fixed schedules? Or can I book another date?
If a date is not available on the website. Send us a request on Instagram. We will try our best to accommodate you.

Can we bring our final outcomes home?

We will need to fire your pieces first before you are able to use them, the firing process will involve multiple stages like drying, and firing it twice which can take around 6-8 weeks. We will inform you when your works are ready for pick up.

Can I bring pets?
Yes of course. Our founder (Ashe) is actually a gray tabby cat. We love pets! Please bring your pets :) We also assume that you will be responsible for them and will not disrupt any other ongoing classes in the other class rooms.
