FAQ

🏺 Workshops (Pottery & Kintsugi)

Do I need any experience to join a workshop? No experience needed! All of our workshops are beginner-friendly and focused on creativity, connection, and fun.

What’s the difference between pottery and Kintsugi workshops? Pottery workshops focus on hand-building pieces like plates or incense holders. Kintsugi workshops explore the Japanese-inspired art of repairing broken ceramics with gold. Both are hands-on, unique, and social.

Can I take home what I make? Yes! Kintsugi pieces go home with you the same day. Pottery items are fired and ready for pickup in 2-3 weeks. We'll email you when they’re ready.

Do pottery workshop pieces need to be fired? Without firing pieces are brittle which might work with some decorative art which does not get actively used. We like giving customers an option, as some like to come for the experience.

Firing makes your creations usable, microwave/dishwasher/oven safe.

What happens to my piece/s after pottery workshop? They are carefully transported to our studio in Venice Beach where they dry & then are individually brush glazed and kiln fired in 2200+ degrees F. After firing, they are packed in bags with your names and dropped off at the original workshop venue.

Where are workshops held? We host pop-up workshops at local restaurants and creative spaces in Venice Beach and around Los Angeles. The exact location is listed in each workshop description.

Can I come with a friend or book as a group?
Absolutely! Be sure to book spots together or let us know in the notes so we can seat you at the same table.

What’s your cancellation policy? Tickets are fully refundable until 7 days before the event, can be refunded as a gift card 3-7 days before and non-refundable <3 days before the event.

Can’t make it? Feel free to send a friend in your place β€” just email us their name.
