Bringing Creativity to You—Wherever You Are. We’d love to ome to your space! Contact us to check dates, pricing or to customize your mobile event!
This program is catered to adults—we bring creative, hands-on experiences to breweries, businesses, offices, local non-profits and senior centers across the area. It’s a fun and engaging way to boost customer satisfaction, offer a fresh experience to your community, and create space for connection and creativity.
We offer both clay and warm glass workshops:
Clay Projects: Custom steins, garden gnomes, pinch pots, and more
Warm Glass Projects: Fused glass suncatchers, coasters, ornaments, and jewelry
No experience is necessary—our instructors guide every session. We arrive 20 minutes early to set up and stay 20 minutes afterward to clean up. Afterward, we take all pieces back to ICCGS for kiln firing.

New for 2025 is our “Create with Clay” community sculpture table.
This evolving sculpture invites visitors of all ages to add their creative touch to a themed clay scene (past themes have included Forest or Underwater environments).
We will help set the stage by shaping a simple base structure in clay that fits the theme — something that sparks ideas and encourages contributions from the public.
This activity is a joyful, collaborative way to show how clay can bring people together and tell a story — one small sculpture at a time.
You may know our Create with Clay Table from several local festivals and events including: Girl Scout Convention, Cedar Rapids Public Library Makers Fest, Marion Art Festival, Downtown Farmers Market and many more!
Wheel Demonstatios: Our Ceramic Wheel Artists will show off their skill as they throw live while visitors watch — they will be showcasing the process and artistry that makes working with clay so captivating.
Hands-on Demonstrations: At your Event, you may be interested in us offering short 5–10 minute hands-on demos, helping guests try their hand at centering and guiding them through a brief (but memorable!) wheel experience.
Ceramic Wheel Demonstrations draw people in, sparks curiosity, and helps build a deeper connection to art and the practice of ceramics--and it's just FUN!
