This is a very special place. My friend and I did a single class just for fun, and it was so much more than that! Caty is a wonderful teacher, the studio is beautiful and filled with light. The class was a perfect balance of instruction (we are beginners) and just do what feels good. Working with clay was incredibly therapeutic and Caty creates a wonderful environment to try it without expectations. Highly highly recommend taking a class here. We will definitely be back!

I recently took some throwing and trimming classes with Caty and had a great experience! I loved working in such an intimate space with a small group. It’s a wonderful class for beginners like me!

I recently took a ceramics series and had a great time. Caty was knowledgeable and supportive, guiding me through various techniques from wheel-throwing to trimming. The studio was well-equipped, and the atmosphere was friendly and creative. By the end, I had created several pieces I was proud of and discovered a new hobby I'm keen to pursue further. If you're interested in trying something creative and hands-on, I'd definitely recommend giving this ceramics series a shot. It's suitable for beginners and a fun way to learn a new skill.

I attended Clay Body- Small, engaging class, teacher was very specific and helped you succeed on your own, therapeutic, attendees were chill, space was so well thought out, felt very welcomed and acknowledged. Class mates were encouraging and friendly. I will return. Most ceramic studios are very individual and unwelcoming, the teachers seem like they are just potters etc. Caty is an educator, artist and therapeutic and fosters a sense of community. I recommend Waveform to anyone curious about clay, the wheel or community art making.

As an introvert I’ve been trying to step out of my comfort zone and did an intro to throwing class, what a welcoming warm place to do it at. Caty is an amazing skilled artist and instructor who encourages you throughout the learning process. I’d recommend anyone to come to her studio for her classes!
