Heather is just so personable that you almost forget to keep working on your project. Friendly, funny with an amazing skill to teach while simultaneously creating a piece of art, Heather will help you to create your own art piece. Students complete so much in a short time because Heather encourages her students to complete more, using every minute of class time to create another project!

Second class, second great session. Used the wheel and hand building. I will definitely return in later months.

Heather’s friendliness will disarm you which will open up your creative side. Her humor, talent and helpfulness are all impressive. You will learn loads and then you will create something to be proud of. I can’t wait to take another class with her.

This class was so great. From beginning to end you are learning and experience all that is clay. The time flew by and in the end I had two pieces and plans to take another class.

I was impressed with Heather’s friendliness. She also has a great sense of humor. She is quite adept at moving quickly from student to student, each of whom is working on a different product, helping each of us to refine our project. I was surprised how open Heather was to our ideas and was happy to help make them a reality. I will definitely register for more of her classes in the hopes of bettering my technique.

Lots of fun. Harder than you'd think but Heather was always there to help and answer questions. Love that classes are small.

The teacher, Heather, was passionate and lovely and patient. Such a warm and inviting space for play. I will absolutely return.

I loved it so much I try to go weekly now! Heather is such a wonderful person. Everyone that I have met at her studio is such a nice person. come with a basic idea and go from there! This is your motivation to learn something new!

A pleasure as always😌 just the best best way to spend a evening using your hands after work

Loved this experience! I walked in with zero experience in clay and still walked out with a huge smile on my face and a new mug to show for it. Highly recommend.

My husband and I had so much fun with this class. It was the first time we used the wheel and it was a chill environment. Heather was also really great teacher- thank you!

This was a fantastic class. Rarely do you get the chance to be taught so personally by a master of their craft, and Heather is a true master. The workshop beautifully decorated, with soul and intention. Finished pieces are strewn across the space, each providing their own story and serving as wonderful sources of inspiration. Heather was brimming with enthusiasm throughout the whole session, was abundantly helpful throughout, and was happy to chat with us even after the class had ended. I will most certainly be going back; I might just have been inspired to start down the path of ceramics and pottery.

We had such a great time in this class! It's such a fun class whether it's your first time doing pottery (me) or if you've done it for years (my husband). I loved learning how to make pieces on the wheel! I would highly highly recommend!

We had so much fun making pottery in Heather's studio!! She was very informative and knowledgeable and also gave us a lot of creative freedom when it came to making our pieces. Highly recommend!!

We loved our evening with Heather. She will bring out the secret artist in anyone! Was impressed by the space and options to create multiple pieces. We felt great about celebrating art and activity after a very long pandemic delay and would encourage anyone to try out any event at Heather McQueen’s studio!! Five stars.

The instructor (Heather) was overall helpful, uplifting and encouraging. She was easy to communicate with. You don't need to know ANYTHING about clay or ceramics to come to this class. The introduction at the beginning gave students a feel of what to expect. I felt that I had a ton of creative freedom attending this class. I already had something in mind that I wanted to create, so I think that that helped me throughout my process. Overall thought that creating and shaping the clay with my hands was a stress reliever. I would take this class again in the future. Highly recommend!

This class was so much fun! The instructor was extremely helpful - and she encourages lots of creativity (which i don't have).
I made a funky looking flower vase that I absolutely LOVE (because I made it with my own two hands).

Very friendly teacher! Helped us with any questions we had. It was a pretty free form class. I had a blast!

Had such a great time at Clay Play! I went with a friend and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Heather is a wonderful teacher and we learned quite a lot in the time we spent at her studio. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend.

Heather was SO AWESOME - I cannot say enough wonderful things about this class. Hosted in her studio, Heather made us feel completely at home and generously shared with us everything from aprons, clay, molds, tools, and her expertise! Super patient, welcoming, knowledgeable, friendly...we loved this class and can't wait to come back.

This class was so much fun! Everyone had a great time. Heather (instructor) was really easy going and knowledgeable, and helped us with whatever we wanted to try to make. People made bowls, mugs, plates, vases, etc.

I had SUCH a great time at Clay Play with Heather. My friend and I found this class on Dabble and decided to take a stab at getting in touch with our creative side. Heather was a wonderful instructor and had this amazing laid-back, yet helpful approach. I am really looking forward to going back and trying this again! And for only $25?? You can't beat that!

Really fun class! Teacher offered great advice and also the freedom to explore the process. Highly recommend.

The class was not the typical classroom style. Heather threw us right in so we could get hands on experience. After taking a pottery class over 14 years ago, it was nice just to "play". We got to use the pottery wheel and use pre-thrown clay to make something quicker using bowls and cylinders. It was great fun for a couple friends or even a date.

This class was super fun! Our teacher was very nice and informative on how to work with the materials. Everyone seemed to have a great time, and I'd definitely recommend the class to anyone I know! Can't wait to see my finished piece!

The class was great and very relaxing and I am excited to come back!

This was a fun workshop. I'm excited to see my finished project. Heather is upbeat and patient. I had never worked with clay before and didn't feel intimidated at all. I hope to take another class here in the near future

Clay Play was awesome! Heather is a very easy-going, fun teacher. She let's you imagine your own clay creation and then helps you bring it to life. We even got time to play on the potters wheel which was such a cool experience! I'm so glad I went and can't wait to see my creations when they are finished. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone interested in clay - especially beginners!

Was a good class to play! There's no right or wrong in this class, just learning through doing. Was a chill atmosphere and can't wait to see my pieces when finished! If you like rigid structure and perfection, perhaps not the class for you.

I came with a friend and this was our first clay pottery class. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we are planning a day to return! Heather was a great teacher. Thanks so much for making our first clay pottery experience a great one!

The class was great! Heather was fun and helpful. I would love to take another class. I highly recommend!

Heather was great! She has an amazing studio with everything you need to build a great clay piece and her instructions and one-on-one time was very helpful. GREAT class and great group outing!

Heather gave good instruction/demos, but didn't make the class overly-structured. She encouraged us to be creative and helped where necessary. Great experience and I would recommend this class to anyone!!!

I've only ever done hand building with clay before and Heather gave us a solid introduction to using a wheel. Her studio is a really funky art space and her style is very free-form, passionate and exciting. Just like most clay classes, you can't really finish your piece in one session because the clay needs time to dry before you can finish, fire, glaze. I recommend either planning to take a 2nd session to do that, or just play with learning new techniques an don't worry about finishing a piece to take home. I had a ton of fun just playing!
