Intro to Wild Clay/Earthenware Pottery Workshop

Becky was very kind and she really has a beautiful and relaxing space for us to learn and explore our talents. Her doggy Colby is precious too..!!

Becky was very informative on many types of clay. Her studio and home is amazing. Such a wonderful vibe. In the intro we learned how she collects clay how she processes it. Then we were able to use the clay and create a piece of pottery including painting it from other clay. Her knowledge is expansive on clay and pottery. We chose to leave our pieces as we were invited to come back another day to fire them. We were a little worried if we took them home and did it on our own that they might not turn out so well.

We had the best time, highly recommend for anyone interested in working with clay and wanting to learn about ethically harvesting and processing natural clay. Becky was an awesome host and really knowledgeable, looking forward to future classes from her and pottery making.

My girls and I had a wonderful time making clay pinch pots and learning about the clay and where it is found! A wonderful experience!

I signed up for this intro pottery class with my mom and my daughters. We all had a great time! The studio was very cute and the instructor did a great job giving us the history and background of clay pottery. We learned a lot and had a great time!

This was a perfect way to spend a foggy, wet Sunday! We learned so much about clay and had a lot of time to create our own!!!!

We went to a beautiful house/studio where we learned about the local natural clays as well as some of the local points of interest; we were each able to make a nice piece in the time allowed, and brought the pieces home for a low temperature firing; great experience. Note: we are members of a clay studio near our home, and we're interested in new techniques.

Beautiful setting, very interesting learning about the soil and clays. Great experience. Loved making our pots and mugs in a remote part of Julian.

Becky was an absolutely wonderful host! We learned so much about the land, wild clay, and how to process it. She was so welcoming and answered all of our questions, while providing a welcoming atmosphere. Thank you Becky! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a unique experience in the mountains.

My husband and I had a very enjoyable experience! Becky was very warm and inviting. She provided detailed information on how she collects and prepares the clay she uses from the earth and interesting historical facts about Julian. We were given the opportunity to mold clayfreely using her examples or our own ideas. This was definitely a highlight of our weekend getaway.
