Scarab Creative Arts

I've been dabbling in ceramics on and off (mostly off) for close to 20 years, so it felt amazing getting my hands back into some clay.I hosted an event with Scarab Creative Arts last year, which is where I met Hannah, of Rose ceramics. She's teaches pottery classes here and she's also an amazing artist herself. I signed up for the six-week intermediate classes from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM. The cost is $275 and includes everything; clay, supplies, and all firings. All you need to bring is an apron and an open mind.The class style here is free from; just get your clay and go. Hannah walks around and checks in on your progress and helps with anything you need. If you've never sat in front of pottery wheel, I highly recommend taking the beginner class for more of teacher/student model set up. There are other classes offered here beyond pottery like painting, stained glass artistry, and even a few classes for kids. They do host events from time to time in their gallery and have a gift shop where you can try to sell your pieces.I'm excited to see what the future has in store for me when it comes to my pottery. I might just end up becoming a member here!

Scarab was so much fun! My bestie took me for my birthday and we really enjoyed it. We took the wheel throwing pottery class. It was a small, intimate class of 6 people,7 including the instructor. The whole thing was two hours long and she took us through the whole process of throwing clay on the wheel. You have the chance to make up to 3 pots but can only take the best 2. Sadly, I was only able to pick 1 to take because it was much harder than anticipated. Nonetheless, it was so much fun! We are already making plans to come back. Make sure you wear clothes you are willing to get dirty, because it is messy. If you have long hair, throw it up so it doesn't get caught in the wheel. They offer various types of art classes and even some for kids. I will be returning in the future.

Great place !!! Came here for a restorative yoga and love the atmosphere!! All the creativity of art and unique gifts ideas . They have art classes and offer yoga classes with Bethany. Definitely check it out !!

Great people and great try nights!!! Love ceramics! Love Raquel! A welcome addition to the Fresno Art scene

My friend and I attended a try night and we had the best time! Let's just say this art form does not come naturally to me but the instructor managed to salvage the mess I made and helped me turn it into 2 cute pots! I learned a lot and it was a fun group of 6 so just the right size for everyone to get individualized help. I love the vibe, art displays, and selection of classes offered. Can't wait to become a regular.

We had a fantastic team pottery event at this little gem of a place! Raquel was a fabulous instructor and we all had a blast making, designing, painting our own clay bowls and they all turned out adorable. I would highly recommend checking them out if you're looking for something different and fun! #bonus If you're ever on the hunt for a unique and one of a kind gift they won't disappoint, as each artist has goodies for sale too!

Did a try night with Raquel and it was amazing! She was so patient and helpful and made every step of the process super enjoyable! Great idea for a date night and to try out the art of throwing clay! Highly recommend
