Date Night Ceramics with Phillip Strauss at The Arts Center in Orange
September 16 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Spend an evening getting your hands dirty and discovering the magic of the potter’s wheel.
Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, planning a first date, catching up with friends, or
simply trying something new, Ceramic Date Night offers a creative experience that’s equal parts
fun, relaxing, and surprisingly addictive.
Your evening begins with a tour of our ceramics studio and gallery, followed by a demonstration
from one of The Art Center’s talented Resident Artists. Then it’s your turn. With plenty of
guidance and encouragement, you’ll sit down at the wheel and create your own pottery from
clay.
Most participants spend about 90 minutes on the wheel and create two to three pieces during
their first session. No experience is necessary—just a willingness to try something new and
have fun.
Once your pieces are complete, you’ll choose from more than 60 beautiful glazes to give your
work its final color and character. Our staff will then fire and finish your pottery, and 4-6 weeks
later, you’ll return to pick up your handmade creations—lasting reminders of a memorable
evening.
Who Is It For?
Despite the name, Ceramic Date Night isn’t just for couples. Bring a spouse, partner, friend,
parent, sibling, coworker, or come on your own. The real goal is to spend a few hours making
something with your hands, sharing some laughs, and discovering a creative side you may not
have known you had.
