Carve Your Own Jewelry Dish Pottery Workshop

- Description
Unplug and explore the art of slow-carving at Slip Studio in White Plains. Join us for a mindful, 2.5-hour ceramic jewelry dish workshop where you will craft a unique home for your rings, trinkets, and treasures. Using premium brown stoneware clay, you will learn the calming technique of carving "divets" and grooves into a thick clay slab to create a functional piece of art.
The Slow-Art Experience:
Slab Preparation: Learn to compress, shape, and cut a professional-grade stoneware slab.
Mindful Carving: Ariella will guide you through the meditative process of slowly carving out crevices and grooves.
Texture & Design: Use studio tools to smooth, texture, and customize your dish with your own aesthetic.
Finishing: Choose from our selection of vibrant glazes to finish your piece.
Your handcrafted dishes will dry slowly in our studio before being professionally fired. They will be ready for pickup in 4–6 weeks.
No prior pottery experience is necessary! This casual, creative session is perfect for a unique date night or a mom's night out in Westchester. All materials and tools are included.

A Note on the Magic of Ceramics
- PLEASE NOTE: There are no guarantees in pottery! While working in clay is meditative and gratifying, it is also beautifully unpredictable. Clay moves, shifts, and sometimes cracks as it dries or during the firing process—even for the most experienced potters. This is the "magic" of ceramics: learning to let go, accepting that we aren't always in control, and finding beauty in the process.
- We invite you to enjoy the experience as the most important part of your visit; the final product is simply the icing on the cake!
