Flower-Pressed Mug with Mom

Celebrate Mother’s Day by creating something meaningful together. In this special workshop, moms (or mother figures) and their kids will work side by side to make beautiful flower-pressed mugs or vessels from clay. Tuition covers the cost for two participants. Open to tweens (10+), teens, young adults, and adults attending with their mom or mother figure, this beginner-friendly class is perfect for all skill levels. We’ll start by pressing real flowers into clay slabs to create delicate botanical textures. Then you’ll shape your piece into a mug or vessel and decorate it using ceramic stains and underglaze to highlight the floral impressions. Come spend a creative morning together and leave with a handmade piece to cherish. Finished mugs will be ready for pickup Friday, May 8, just in time for Mother’s Day.

(In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note the pre-scheduled makeup date for this course will be TBD by class poll. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)
