🌼 FAQ: 2-Part Clay & Floral Workshop

What can I expect from this workshop?

This is a special two-part experience hosted by Studio Sumi and a local floral designer. In Part 1, you'll handbuild your own ceramic vase. In Part 2 (after the vase is fired and glazed), you'll return to fill it with a custom floral arrangement using seasonal blooms. It’s a creative, hands-on journey—start to finish!

Who is this workshop for?

Beginners and experienced makers alike! No pottery or floral experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and creativity.

What’s included?

✨ Clay, tools, and materials for vase-making
🌸 Flowers and arranging tools for Part 2
🫖 Complimentary Coffee & Tea Bar
🧼 Aprons and all firing + glazing included

Can I bring my own drinks or snacks?

Yes! This workshop is 21+ and BYOB-friendly, whether that’s wine, mocktails, or sparkling water.

What if I can’t make it to Part 2?

We’ll do our best to find a way for you to still receive your floral arrangement, but participation in both sessions is highly encouraged to get the full experience.
