Pottery Works, a ceramics workshop located on 126 W. 9th, allows customer’s imagination and color creativity come to life. <\/p>\n

Visitors can choose to create mosaic pieces, or fuse glass into decorative pieces or fashion them into one of a kind jewelry. For a studio fee and the cost of the visitors piece of pottery, they may use all of the paints, brushes, and other materials, unlimited painting time, glazing and firing of the piece, and they may receive as much help as they would like. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I bought it they only had mosaic pieces and the bisque,” said Pam Fellers, owner of Pottery Works. “I\u2019ve added fuse glass and clay for specific event kind of things.\u201d . <\/p>\n

Bisque, or bisqueware, refers to molded clay which has been fired once and has no chemically bonded water left in the clay. To create usable bowls or other objects, bisqueware is glazed and fired again.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t do clay throwing unless it\u2019s asked for or in a class,\u201d said Jordyn Correa, Hays freshman and Pottery Works employee. \u201cUsually, when you come in, you pick out your piece and you have a studio fee on top of the piece you want. For an adult, the studio fee is eight dollars and for a child it\u2019s six. That gives them access to all the brushes, paints, glazing, and anything else.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWe use to have a Tiger Day which was a day we gave discounts to students at the college but currently we are working on having a day were if students present their Tiger Card they can get a ten percent discount,\u201d Feller said. <\/p>\n

The workshop has over 200 different pieces to offer including plates, mugs, picture frames, vases, teapots, piggy banks, ceramic animals, letters, add ones, and mosaics. They have pieces that can go from three dollars and up it all depends on the piece the visitor gets. They also have idea books, stencils, stamps, sponges, and many other tools to assist. <\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the holidays, Pam usually tries to have classes because that\u2019s around the time business picks up,\u201d Correa said. \u201cThere\u2019s a wine night class where people come in to do a canvas painting and she will show you how to get to the finished picture step by step and you can have wine while you do that. So obviously you have to be 21 or older for the class.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pottery Works also does parties and group packages and Fellers tries to work out a reasonable price for the group. <\/p>\n
