Pottery studio opens with programs for kids

North Raleigh is home to a new pottery studio that offers classes and parties for kids.

The party packages are designed for kids ages 6 and older and include instruction and materials for up to 20 children for handbuilding or eight for work on the potters wheels. Projects are available for pick up about two weeks after the party.

Matt Schweizer with the studio tells me that they began working on the studio in November. 

"We wanted to offer a place where children could come and learn to throw on the potter's wheel," he wrote me in an email. "There are very few places that provide children that opportunity in this area."
