Our Services

Walk-ins always welcome — no experience, no reservations required. Just show up and create!

What We Offer

From solo painting sessions to full group parties, there's something for everyone at The Cracked Pot.

Paint Your Own Pottery

Choose from hundreds of bisque pieces — mugs, bowls, figurines, platters, and more — then paint it your way. No experience needed. We supply all the paints, brushes, and tools. Your finished piece is fired in our kiln and ready to pick up in about a week.

Private Party Bookings

Celebrate birthdays, bachelorette parties, family reunions, date nights, and more in our studio! We reserve the space just for your group and walk everyone through the process. Call us to check availability and book your date.

Group & School Events

Bring your class, scout troop, team, or club for a creative outing. We accommodate groups of all sizes and can tailor the experience to your age group and budget. A great hands-on activity for kids and adults alike.

Custom & Gift Pieces

Looking for a one-of-a-kind gift? Browse our selection of already-finished pieces made right here in the studio, or commission a custom painted item for a truly personal present. Gift certificates are also available.
