In our Santa’s Workshop series, we invite you to come in and decorate a variety of Holiday Projects.  All projects are premade by our Resident Artists and bisque fired, making them ready for your own decorations–using our glazes/paints.  All projects will then be fired again in our kilns and ready for pickup exactly 1 week later.  Registration is available online and walk-ins are also welcome, space permitting.  Masks are required and COVID-19 social distancing measures will be in place.
