Get ready for a fun, hands-on pottery adventure where you’ll create your very own ceramic mug!
Mugs might look tricky at first, but they’re surprisingly beginner-friendly. Using simple hand-building techniques like pinching and coiling, you’ll shape your mug, add a circular base, and then get playful with all kinds of quirky and creative handle designs. You can even add characters or fun designs with surface decorations!
Instructors will guide you step by step, making it easy and enjoyable. Bring your imagination, experiment with textures and personal touches, and enjoy a relaxed, playful workshop where you’ll take home a unique mug made entirely by you. Due to the kiln-firing process, finished mugs will be ready for pickup approximately 3–4 weeks after the workshop.

Dasha Berezhnova is a multimedia artist who picked up ceramics in 2020, and never looked back. She loves to bring whimsy to wheel-thrown and hand-build forms by incorporating sculptural elements, cheeky details, and bright colours. She approaches art-making in a lighthearted and experimental way, and enjoys helping students find their unique artistic voice, develop their confidence, and have fun!
