Clay Pumpkin Carving

Clay Pumpkin Carving 🎃

Carve clay, not gourds—because pottery > pumpkin guts. Pick your perfect pumpkin and carve it up with goofy grins, spooky faces, or whatever wild design you dream up. No clay experience needed—just bring your Halloween spirit.

This one’s BYOB, so grab a drink, carve some clay, and kick off spooky season with us. Your piece will be glazed and fired by our crew and ready for pickup in 2–4 weeks—just in time to show it off.

Instructor: Jess Simmons
Cost: $50 per person

Note: We need at least 5 students to run the class. If it’s canceled, you’ll receive a full refund.
