What are the benefits of learning the craft of pottery?
Creativity!
You can make anything! Mold, shape, cut, paint, and glaze your piece to look exactly like you want it to. Express yourself! The possibilities are endless.
Stress Relief
Taking time out to be creative and focus on something that isn’t the TV, a smartphone, or your to-do list is a great way to decompress and get some relief from every day life. Plus... you get to play with mud!
Socialization
Even in a small classroom setting, you can meet new people and create lasting friendships that enhance your life. You can also take a class with existing friends and make an evening of it. Don’t forget the wine!
Strength
Learning how to manipulate clay with a pottery wheel can strengthen your hands, wrists, and arms. It promotes joint dexterity and movement.
