Puddle ClayWorks

Puddle ClayWorks is a 1,200-square-foot ceramics studio with four electric wheels and three kilns, pitched as a relaxed spot for a date night or night out. Instructors who specialize in thrown-and-altered vessels run both wheel-throwing and hand-building classes for all levels, with clay, glaze, instruction, and firing fees included. Pieces you make get fired and glazed for you to pick up later.

The move: Sit at neighboring wheels learning to center and pull clay into your own bowls, then glaze them and come back later to take home what you threw.

📍 Before you go Runs by appointment with rotating intro and multi-week classes; call or text 337-707-5018 to confirm the next available date-friendly session.
