You bring the room. I bring the lab.

Workshops are always free. A session runs 60–90 minutes for 10–20 students and needs one table, one outlet, and a sink nearby.

Scheduling priority goes to underserved schools, communities, and programs serving students who wouldn't otherwise get near a wheel.

What We Each Bring

What AoM brings

  • A pottery wheel
