Let customers speak for us
from 435 reviewsMy sister in laws and I went to a workshop at a local brewery and it was so fun! She was so helpful and patient with us and I would love to do another class!
My sister in laws and I went to a workshop and had so much fun! I was struggling and she was so helpful and I would definitely do another workshop!
My husband and I attended this workshop and really enjoyed it. The instructor was friendly and clear, materials provided were great and we are very pleased with the end products which we use all the time
My mom and I had a great time. It was for her birthday. I have now worked on some clay projects from all the tips and tricks I learned. Love that this is for a good cause
The perfect way to spend an evening - good beer, time with friends, and practicing a fun, new, creative skill. Our instructor was great and I had an absolute blast. Looking forward to taking another class in the future.
Instruction was clear and helpful. I love what I was able to create and the quantity of clay offered for the class. Will take another one!
Making and painting my own pottery is therapeutic. Such a joy to display my artworks in my apartment!
Had a great time, perfect amount of instruction, met some new friends, made a couple clay creations, great drinks, and great views!
My boyfriend and I went to this class and had the best time. There was a great balance of helpful instruction from the person leading our class and also freedom to create whatever we wanted. Highly recommend booking a class.
I had the best time doing this activity with my friend. The location was great, the instructor was super helpful, friendly, and informative. I left feeling really confident about my abilities and was really surprised by the quality of the products that this team provided us. I would 10/10 recommend this to anyone and I hope to see more Pottery with a Purpose sessions and events again in the future!
We had such a great time making pottery and drinking the local DC Brau beers. What a great mix of creativity, socializing, and fun! Perfect for a date or with friends <3
this was such a fun event and was led so well! i loved the freedom to create whatever i wanted, with good support by the instructor. a great and different activity to do with friends! I can’t wait to get my piece back:)
Pottery With a Purpose is amazing! My teacher was incredibly caring, patient, and helpful, and she truly listened to me. The location was so calm and serene, making the entire experience relaxing and enjoyable. I absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it!
I took my girlfriend on a date as she has been obsessed with wanting to learn pottery but never had the time to commit to multiple expensive classes. This was a great gateway and we even ordered tamales and coffee that were both delicious. Our host was great and walked us through the basics, was available for questions, and we saw her really make an effort to include someone who showed up alone and a bit late while it was us + one other couple. She is super excited to take the pieces we made to glaze and fire at a local studio we discovered through the websites provided locator. This experience lowered the barrier to entry for a hobby that looked really complicated to get into and we will be continuing to create together
