Wheel Throwing
Explore a new craft in this wheel throwing workshop in Seattle! In this pottery class, you can start your ceramics hobby from scratch or adventure on a creative journey as a fun date idea or birthday party.
This is the perfect place to start if you've never tried ceramics before, as your instructor will teach you the wheel throwing basics. You will get to explore the creative expression of wheel throwing and learn the techniques to center, open and raise a cylinder on the wheel.
You will have the opportunity to try throwing several times and you will choose a single piece to keep at the end of the session. Once you choose your piece to keep, your instructor will assist you to choose your glaze before you clean up as a group.
The studio will trim, dry, glaze and fire your piece for you. When your creation is ready, your instructor will notify you to come back for pick-up, or they can ship your piece for an additional fee. Please allow up to four weeks for your piece to be ready.

Reclaim Clay Collective (RECC) is the first POC, queer, women-owned art studio located in the thriving cultural heart of Seattle’s Chinatown International district. Founders Siera Matsuo and Luanne Wilson left their biology careers to pursue pottery, and made it their mission to nurture an intentional artistic community that helps make art accessible to underserved communities. We prioritize creating a safe space for our QT and BIPOC community and will not tolerate hate in our space.
RECC offers short-term classes designed to help you explore a new creative hobby or long term interest. As art enthusiasts ourselves, we host classes on various mixed media interests to help further expand your art practice and intrigue. We offer group classes and workshops on the potter’s wheel, handbuilding, Risography printmaking, and more.
In addition to classes and workshops, our studio offers membership access for those who want to continue their creative journey and expand their self-exploration.
We welcome you to join our community!
