Pottery Workshop Making a Milk (Margarita) Jug |

Work with clay to handbuild a jug that is funky & functional. Use it as a milk pitcher or for summer time margaritas.The workshop is lead by Linda Williams. Use all of our decorating tools and templates to build your own jug.

This workshop is intended for anyone 12 and up. Younger than 12? Reach out to us or register with a parent.

Everyone is given a large piece of slab to work with. There is enough clay for everyone to make a pitcher for themselves that is large enough for a milk bag. Or use the jug for homemade margaritas or sangria! If you have left over clay with your slab and time then try making a large stirring stick or coaster for your jug! Experiment with texture and put your personality into this custom piece.

  • Sign up online, over the phone or by visiting the studio.
  • Day of: Dress for Mess! We recommend wearing clothes you can get muddy in. Think gardening ware.
  • Show up 5-15 minutes early. We promise we’re friendly, there’s lots to see in our studio PLUS sometimes there are dogs here!
  • The teacher will slab building and give you an overview as to how it works. They can be hands on as you create your piece.
  • Cleanup is a shared activity. Everyone lends a hand and is responsible for cleaning their space.
We love sharing our love of clay and everything we’ve learned through years & years (and more years) of playing with clay. This workshop is fantastic introduction to pottery.
  • Dangly bracelets can maybe get in your way and so might rings.
  • DRESS FOR MESS! Or bring a change of clothes.

Pick Up

There’s a saying  “nothing like pottery to teach you patience”. We first bisque fire your pieces, then once cooled we glaze and refire. Pieces usually take 2-3 weeks. We email everyone when the pieces are ready for pick up. We fire according to size and best fit in the kiln.

Explore you Creativity with Clay and Have Fun Getting Muddy!
