Is there anything better than playing with goats and clay at the same time? Probably not, no. Thanks so much to Jake West for bringing these cuties to the studio this morning and letting us do just that! We plan to offer more of these adorable workshops in the future so if you missed out today, keep checking back!

Here’s a small sample of all the dinnerware we dropped off at The Palms restaurant on Ingersoll. We delivered blates, large dinner plates, side dishes, and are still working on trays to send over! Make sure to stop out for lunch or dinner for great food…and pretty dinnerware!

🐐GOATS + CLAY CLASS🐐

Ready for some creativity, fresh air, and unforgettable animal company? Join us in our courtyard for a one-of-a-kind goat + pottery experience!

You will get a mug or a planter and transform it into something completely your own. Add clay, carve, sgraffito, experiment with underglazes, build texture, and bring an original idea to life. We’ll guide you through the techniques, but there’s no set project to copy.

As you create, goats will be hanging out to wander and keep you company! Expect plenty of joyful interruptions and photo-worthy moments!

📅 Sunday, October 4th
⏰ 11:00 AM–1:00 PM
💵 $80 per person
📍 Kunzler Studios Courtyard

Space is limited, and this unique class is sure to fill quickly! Reserve your spot today for an afternoon of creative freedom, hands-on pottery, sgraffito, and goats.
