Private Groups
Our private group bookings are perfect for birthday parties, showers, or just a fun night out with friends!
Join us for a private class to celebrate an event or spend a creative evening with friends and family! Our private group classes held in the Gardiner Museum’s ceramics studios give you the opportunity to work with clay while surrounded by centuries of human creativity.
All classes are led by experienced artist instructors who specialize in ceramics and will teach participants how to make their own clay creations. For an additional cost, complement the experience with a tour of our galleries or a meal at Clay Restaurant.
All classes are 1.5 hours in length.
Your class does not include Museum admission. We are happy to offer a discounted rate of $11 per person for adult admission tickets, to be confirmed at the time of booking.
