program overview
Join us for a relaxed evening of guided clay with Lexi Bakkar. You’ll have space to create one-of-a-kind gifts and items for the home using simple handbuilding techniques. This is a beginner friendly class and the perfect way to dip your toes into clay without committing to a full 8-week class. Bring a friend or partner and leave with beautiful handmade ceramics to adorn your home. (Items will be ready for pick up two weeks from class date).

Class FAQ
We ask that you notify us at least 10 days in advance of a class if you need to cancel your registration. You may cancel by phone or email and we will gladly offer you a refund or credit toward a future class. If you cancel with less than 10 days’ notice, we will not be able to provide refunds, due to our contractual obligations and material purchases for each class.
Sometimes, the Sonoma Community Center has to cancel a class due to low enrollment or unforeseen circumstances, such as a natural disaster or health emergency. If this happens and we do not offer a reschedule date, you will be refunded 100% of your registration fee (minus the payment processing and services fee), or credit towards a future class. If we are able to offer a reschedule date but you are unable to make the new date, we will gladly offer credit towards a future class.
All credits must be used within 1 year.
