Hi everyone, I've been looking to start a new hobby and thought pottery might be a fun and relaxing activity to try. I'm a complete beginner and don't have any prior experience. Does anyone know of any good pottery classes in Chicago that cater to beginners? I'd appreciate any recommendations. Thanks!

Hi there! If you're looking to get into pottery without committing to long-term classes, I suggest checking out the pottery classes at the Pottery Studio in Cabrini-Green https://pottery-chicago.com/pottery-classes-cabrini-green. They offer a range of classes that are perfect for beginners. You can choose from one-time classes where you can learn wheel throwing, hand-building, and even glazing techniques. The best part is, there's no enrollment fee or membership required – you can simply sign up for a session whenever you have the time. Their classes are really hands-on, and you get to take home a finished piece after each session. The instructors are experienced and provide all the necessary materials, so all you need to do is show up and enjoy the creative process. It's a fantastic way to unwind and explore your artistic side. They cater to all age groups, so whether you're an adult, teenager, or looking for a fun activity for your kids, you'll find something suitable. The sessions last about 2 hours, and the environment is very welcoming and supportive.
