My experience at Slip Shop exceeded my expectations. Took a Tile Mug workshop and cannot believe how beautifully it turned out. The shop is roomy and inviting; it was so organized, I felt immediately comfortable to set up a work area. Firstly, … More I engaged in some light chatter with friendly strangers sharing lovely charcuterie and beverages. Ariella made her own bread; yes please! Back to the clay: there are works to inspire, some finished and works in progress. I saw uniquely designed platters that make me want to sign up for a series of classes so I can make my own. Great experience!

This is an amazing new studio and I am so happy that it is close to my home. I took my kids - three different ages - to family clay day on a day off of school. The studio is beautiful, clean and comfy. Really nice. Ariella was helpful in … More the planning of the projects, was supportive giving tips and ideas. The kids all commented on how nice she is! There was lovely conversation with everyone. It was just a great experience. I could have spent another hour or two there. My hope is for my daughter to join one of her classes, and for me to join an adult class. We all felt right at home there. Ariella is a very talented artist and teacher.

I had a great time at a mom’s night out, learning how to design and paint a plate, chatting with other moms and eating delicious snacks. The studio is new and inviting. Ariella led a great session that was relaxed and insightful with design … More ideas and techniques. I will be back

There are few teachers like Ariella. She brings confidence and fun to every class, making the work feel both joyful and approachable. Whenever I made a mistake, she showed me simple, effective ways to fix it, so I didn’t have to start from … More scratch. Those small, smart tips helped me grow because I could build on what I’d already learned instead of beginning again each time.
Ariella is not only a beautiful artist but also a gifted teacher and a genuinely kind person. Her calm energy and passion for what she does are absolutely contagious. I can’t wait to take another class with her; it’s truly my happy place.
