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

Slip studio is a warm and inviting atmosphere where I could just relax and create. As someone who had never taken a class like this before, I didn’t know what to expect but I ended up having the best time. I’m sooo proud of my board!!! … More
I also feel like this could be a bachelorette or book club party waiting to happen. -
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. -
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!
