Happy Students!
“I have been taking classes regularly at Studio 228 for the past year and it is one of the best decisions I could have made. All of the instructors are knowledgeable, kind and approachable. Rena is an incredible owner who keeps things organized, clean and above all FUN. You come for the joy of pottery making and you stay for the incredible community.”

“I've done a handbuilding workshop and a "give it a whirl" intro to the wheel night. Both were great! Becky taught the handbuilding (salt and pepper shaker) class. She is an absolute gem! I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. She is knowledgeable, kind, and patient. I look forward to spending more time at the studio!”

“Great pottery studio! I started taking lessons here a few years ago and the instructors and community of students are fantastic. Great classes for all levels, including people new to pottery. There are also open studio hours that are included in the session price, which is a nice bonus. Definitely recommend to anyone interested in trying out a new hobby!”
