Friend Assembly Pottery Studio & Shop — Attraction in Aurora

This studio is so beautiful and fun! I have been to two other beginner courses in Denver at other locations and the standout here in my opinion is Nathan, our instructor. I've found in beginner classes the teachers are so advanced that it is difficult to relate to where the students struggle or they don't break down the steps enough to help understand.
