What you'll do
You’ll start out by meeting me at my home, where my studio is. It’s an outdoor studio in the backyard of our little spanish home in the historic neighborhood of West Adams, about 10 minutes from downtown. I provide complimentary craft beer, la croix, or hot tea to sip on while you throw. I can host up to five guests at a time and I’ll give demonstrations, helping out with tricks and techniques to get you going.
I am happy to offer as much guidance as you wish, usually the first hour is lots of specific instruction and the second hour is a chance to experiment and practice while I remain close to help as needed.
During your class you’ll get a chance to create as many pieces as you have time for. Everyone is different, some students might finish half a dozen pieces of pottery while others might spend nearly the whole class perfecting just a couple. The price includes a piece of pottery to take home.
If you want to keep additional pieces there is an additional charge of $10 per piece and they take 4-8 weeks to be fired and glazed.
Other things to note
When you arrive call me so I can come greet you, my number is 606-748-0236.

I’m a ceramic artist working in Los Angeles. I’ve been working with ceramics for 6 years and teaching for two. I love to share this passion of mine. My studio is part of my home and even after all this time I am still completely in love with having my hands in clay. I hope by the end of our session you’ll understand why this practice is so fun, challenging and meditative.
Where you'll be
We will be working out of my personal studio which is part of my home but separate from my living space. It is outdoors!

We had a great time working with the clay and making some pieces to take home and remind us of this special day! Penelope made sure to coach us through the whole process and get us used to working with the wheel. We had a great time, we definitely recommend this experience!

I had a great time! Penelope is so easy going and helpful. The environment was calming and fun, with no pressure to be Michelangelo or da Vinci. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for something interesting to do that’s not the usual tourist-y outings.
