Located in Portland's Pearl District, Hugs Ceramics operates a fully equipped pottery studio focused on wheel throwing and handbuilding instruction. The studio's core curriculum includes multi-week courses in Wheel Throwing Fundamentals and combination handbuilding programs, complemented by single-session specialty workshops. Materials, glazing supplies, and kiln firing services are included with all class registrations. The facility maintains dedicated spaces for wheel work, hand building, and glazing, with 12 pottery wheels and a professional-grade electric kiln. Students progress through structured skill development in small group settings, with projects spanning functional vessels to decorative ceramics. Monthly themed workshops connect specific techniques to cultural touchstones, including period-inspired pottery events. Hugs Ceramics serves the Portland metro area's adult learning community through morning, evening and weekend class schedules. The studio provides all tools and equipment needed for on-site work, from basic hand tools to specialty glazes. Students receive guided instruction from project conception through final firing, with finished pieces available for pickup approximately three weeks after completion.
