Private Pottery Class Brooklyn
Gather your group for a private pottery class in Brooklyn and create something with your hands. Skip the usual restaurant or bar and enjoy a relaxed clay workshop with food, drinks, and time together at Bat Haus. Available in our downstairs studio for up to 15 guests or in the main event space for groups up to 50.
A Creative Way to Gather
A private pottery class at Bat Haus offers a relaxed way to spend time together while making something with your hands. Instead of sitting around a table at a restaurant, your group gathers around clay, learning simple hand building techniques and creating your own ceramic pieces.
Workshops take place either in our downstairs private studio for groups of up to 15 guests or in the main event space for larger groups of up to 50. Each booking includes a five hour window so your group has time for the pottery class, food, drinks, and conversation. BYOB and outside food are welcome.

Real Celebrations at Bat Haus
On September 4th, 2023, Jenny gathered a group of close friends at Bat Haus for a private pottery class.
Guests arrived with drinks and light snacks and spent the first part of the afternoon catching up and settling in. Soon everyone gathered around the tables to begin the pottery workshop, learning simple hand building techniques and shaping their own ceramic pieces.
After the class, the group relaxed with more conversation, photos, and time together. Each guest left with a handmade pottery piece and a shared memory from a creative afternoon celebrating Jenny with friends.
