About Corporate & Private Group Events
Why Groups Love Pottery Here
I see clay as a kind of magic - slowing you down, letting you breathe. When groups walk into my studio, I want them to forget about work deadlines and just enjoy creating. It’s not just pots and plates; it’s connecting, laughing, and letting your hands do the talking. People often tell me that making something together feels like meditation.
What Happens at Our Events
You don’t need experience. I’ll guide you at each step, so everyone gets to join in the fun. For bigger groups, we stick to hand-building - think nameplates, bowls, or your own mug. Smaller groups sometimes try the potter’s wheel, which is a whole different vibe - everyone gets to try their hand at shaping clay.
- Clay team building workshop for offices
- Birthday pottery party for friends or family
- Relax and de-stress as an employee wellness activity
Who Can Join
My rooftop studio is open to all sorts of groups. I’ve hosted companies like SAP and Google, families looking for something different on weekends, and friends wanting a creative group bonding session. You just need to bring your people - I’ll take care of the rest.
Your Clay Story Continues
You make your piece, but it’s not ready yet. I fire it for you here, and that takes a couple of weeks. Once it’s done, you can swing by and pick it up - one more memory to take home.

My Story
Clay and me, we go way back. Making pottery just fills me up with joy, and sometimes, it’s all about emotions. Like that sgrafitto bowl I made for Sonu Rabbit—miss you, buddy. Every Ganesha festival, Alle Bappa Alle! I make my own idol, and it’s pure peace. Nine years running this studio, and watching our Ganesha idol making workshop become a big deal in the community—total proud moment. I love seeing folks shape memories from mud, together.
