Tips for Fish Tales
What is a firing fee? – The firing process turns raw clay into ceramic through high-temperature heating. Check Fish Tales’ social channels for their “no firing fee” specials!
No artistic talent needed! – The staff at Fish Tales will walk you through step-by-step.
PYOP Days – “Paint-Your-Own-Pottery”. Fish Tales offers make-and-take craft days for kids. Create and leave with your art project that day!  Their resident pottery painter will be on-hand to teach techniques you might like to learn.
