Meet Our Team.
Our teaching team is comprised of instructors who are skilled in their craft and are expert teachers - teaching matters a lot! We specialize in adjusting our style and pace to meet the needs of first-time potters and help hone the skill set of those who are advanced and looking to refine their practice. We learn from each other and our students each day and consider the ability to teach and share the love of our craft with others a GIFT.
