Welcome to Date Night at Mabel Ceramics!
** There is room for TWO couples to join date night
ONE ticket for date night covers TWO PEOPLE!
Inquire via email if you have any questions.
At the end of the night, your projects will begin the process of drying out. Once they are fully dried, they can begin the first kiln firing - once they are finished kiln firing #1 I can proceed to prep and glaze them, then put them into the kiln for firing #2! The process of both firings can take about three weeks, but sometimes it takes up to six weeks for your projects to be finished. You will be contacted by text or e-mail when your projects are ready for pick up! You can also choose to have your finished products shipped to you if you're from out of town!
Everyone will go home with a functional, food safe, microwave & dishwasher safe piece of pottery!
Wheel Throwing Date Night
When everyone is settled into the studio, we will do a demonstration and walk you through the steps of throwing a cylinder on the pottery wheel - you will likely make bowls and small cups. Pay close attention to the demo. You and your partner will help guide each other through the process, offering support and guidance to each other throughout the evening! Maddison is there for support and direction as needed.
Around 8pm we will transition into clean up. You will be instructed on how to safely and effectively clean up your work station.
Once your wheel stations are cleaned, you will each choose two your favourite pieces of pottery and choose a glaze for it. We will trim, apply glaze, and fire your pieces in the kiln for you.
Within 4-8 weeks you will receive an e-mail that your pieces are ready for pick-up.
