Pottery parties and lessons in-studio or at your home!

~~About the “in studio” experience~~~

At my studio in West Islip, learning pottery is very hands on. I offer lessons, workshops, and parties. Below are my two most popular offerings are lessons on the pottery wheel and Mud & Merlot parties. Individual classes: $65 for 60 minutes. Includes use of pottery equipment, supplies, and live instruc

tion. This also includes 2 fired and glazed pieces the student would take home (ready for pick up about 2 weeks later). Bundle of 6 classes: $325

Groups of 4-12 people: $50/person for 60 minutes. (Contact for longer sessions) These can be kid parties, adult parties, or family gatherings.

2 hour — “Wine & Wheel” nights available as well. Classes and workshops can also be hand-building rather than wheel.

~~~About the “at your place” experience~~~

I provide all of the equipment and supplies needed to teach a full 90-minute pottery class. Tables, wheels, clay and tools will all be brought to your home, outdoors or indoors ready for fun! After a wheel-demonstration and lesson, each participant will have the opportunity to make one wheel-thrown pottery piece, and one hand-built piece. The pieces will then be labeled and returned to the artist’s studio after the party to be fired and glazed, then returned to the host within 2 weeks. The participants will each receive a labeled bag with their two completed pieces of pottery which they can use for years to come! All pottery and glazes are food safe and non-toxic after they have been fired in the kiln.


~~~About the artist/teacher~~~

I love sharing my passion for working with clay with new folks. I've been making pottery for over 20 years. I use ceramics methods such as hand building, slab work, and traditional wheel thrown pottery. I've also had much experience with various firing techniques including raku, salt firings, and black pottery. I love working out of my home studio and am inspired by functional art that adds beauty to tables and homes. To see more my art, please visit http://www.alisonryczek.com/

In addition to my experience with pottery, I’ve have had 3 major life experiences that allow for me to lead an exceptional service: school teacher, teambuilding instructor, and mom.
