Update for our Current Homeschool Students 3/30/20

Pottery and science "to go" kits!

During this time of sheltering in place we would like our students to have the option to participate in the Mountain Pottery science and ceramic handbuilding classes from home. We have developed kits for 5 handbuilding projects and 4 science classes that parents will be able to pick up from Mountain Pottery for their children to  do at home. Each kit requires the same $25 enrichment certificate from Inspire Charter. Many students have several available to use for the kits. 


Once the mandate is lifted students will need additional enrichment certificates to come to Mountain Pottery for glazing classes. Most students are able to glaze 2-3 projects in one 2 hour glazing class depending on the size, complexity and number of colors or techniques used. Glazing classes are $25 each. 


Handbuilding Pottery To Go Kits (excludes glazing):

  • Bird house
  • Wall clock (+$10 for clock mechanism)
  • Mother’s Day heart wall pocket 
  • Fairy garden mushrooms
  • Free build (your choice)

Science To Go Kits:

  • Pollinators & flowers
  • Bird beaks
  • Bat recipes
  • Spider web engineering
  • Wiggle worm kinetics (this will not be available as a kit at this time)

Kits have been assembled and picked up. Thank you for your support...have fun creating with clay at home.


We will let you know when to bring completed projects to Mountain Pottery for bisque firing. 


If you have any special requests please let us know. 

Pottery wheel classes and glazing classes are postponed until May or June. 

Thank you so much for your ongoing support of Mountain Pottery. Stay healthy!
