Couples & Clay: Sushi and Sake Set

January 22, 2026 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM (EST)

Description

A Two-Session Workshop for Two

Looking for a unique way to spend quality time together? Step away from the screen and into the studio for a creative, hands-on date night! Join us for our Sushi & Sake Set Workshop, a relaxed and enjoyable two-session experience where you and your partner will create a beautiful, custom ceramic dining set together.

No prior experience is necessary! This workshop is perfect for absolute beginners and all levels of makers.

💖 What You'll Create

You and your partner will collaborate to design and create a complete, personalized ceramic set, including:

  • Two Sushi Plates: Using the easy and versatile slab-building technique, you'll learn to cut, texture, and refine flat plates perfect for serving rolls, sashimi, or appetizers.
  • Two Sake Cups/Dipping Bowls: We will guide you through simple hand-building methods (like pinching or coiling) to create two small, custom cups or dipping bowls for soy sauce.

📅 The Two-Night Experience

Session 1: The Build

Learn the fundamentals of working with clay. You'll cut your slabs, add unique textures or stamps, and assemble your sets. We'll show you the tricks to creating clean edges and strong joints. Your beautiful creations will then stay with us to dry slowly before being bisque-fired in our kiln.

Session 2: The Finish

Come back a few weeks later (after your pieces have been fired) to apply the color! You'll learn simple yet effective glazing techniques and choose from a selection of stunning food-safe glazes to add that final, professional touch. Your finished, food-safe sets will be ready for pickup a week after the final firing!

All materials will be provided.


INSTRUCTOR BIO:

Olivia first discovered the transformative joy of pottery in 2024, and it quickly blossomed from a casual interest into a profound passion. The immediate connection she felt to the earth-based medium and the process of creation was captivating, leading her to fall deeply in love with the art form. This passion now drives her studio practice, where she spends countless hours refining her skills.

Her primary focus is on throwing functional pottery, creating pieces like mugs, bowls, and plates designed to be used and cherished every day. While the wheel is her main tool, Olivia also greatly enjoys the tactile freedom of hand building and occasionally crafts a unique, decorative piece that serves purely as art. She is fortunate to be able to share her creations with others by selling her finished work both through her online store and at various local markets.

One of the most rewarding parts of this journey has been teaching several pottery classes at the Bower Center, an experience she truly enjoys. What makes pottery so special to Olivia is the deep connection it gives us to the people who came before us, linking her to a craft thousands of years old, as well as its inherent sustainability. Working with simple, natural materials like clay allows her to create beautiful, lasting objects that celebrate both history and our environment.
