program overview
Ever wanted to try your hand at the potter’s wheel, but not quite ready to dive into an 8 week class yet? Our Wine and Wheel nights offer the best environment to dabble in this new endeavor, while enjoying some local wine and cheese while you’re at it. Sign up yourself and a partner, friend, sibling… to experience it together! Wine and Wheel students are able to keep one creation of their choosing from the evening to have it fired and glazed by the Sonoma Ceramics staff and made ready for pickup.
A perfect gift for you and a loved one!
Please note: each ticket is only for 1 adult, if you are signing up 2 people, please choose quantity 2 at checkout.

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.

The Sonoma Community Center is committed to creating an accessible learning environment. If you require any special considerations(medical, physical, learning) please share them with Sean Baskin, Program Associate, by emailing him at [email protected] so that he can forward them to the relevant Program Director and Instructor.
Late additions to any program, class, or workshop that has already begun will be allowed on a per-case basis depending upon the Program Director & instructors approval. Late additions will have to pay the full registration cost of the class, along with any materials fees, and will not be prorated for the time missed. You may reach out to the program directors directly, or the Program Associate Sean Baskin at [email protected] to request a late addition.
We are always looking for new instructors. You can fill out the form directly here.
