Holiday Ornaments Workshop
About
An all-levels hand-building class where you shape clay ornaments with cookie cutters, texture tools and stamps and decorate them with seasonal motifs or names; staff finish and fire the pieces afterward. Adults and kids 10+ (with an adult) are welcome on Saturday, December 12, 3–6 pm at Pottery Northwest, 2254 7th Ave, about a 10-minute walk from Westlake Station (1 Line). $95, clay and tools included. A Spanish-language family version runs that morning, and luminaries are on offer December 13.

New to pottery?
Most first classes are either a wheel taster, where you learn to centre clay and pull up a cylinder, or hand-building, where you shape a mug, dish or planter with pinch, coil and slab techniques.
- Wear clothes that can get muddy and keep nails short; rings and bracelets come off before the wheel.
- Expect two to three hours for a single session. Clay, tools and firing are almost always in the price; glazing sometimes costs extra.
- A one-time class is the cheap way to find out whether you want a five- or six-week course, which is where the wheel actually starts to click.
Taking it home: Not on the day. Pieces dry, are fired, glazed and fired again, so studios usually hold them for two to four weeks.
