Music & Meditation

What's a sound bath?? A sound bath is a meditative experience where those in attendance are “bathed” in sound waves. Sound waves at different frequencies are used to realign the cells in your body to their natural and optimal vibrational state. 

What do I bring? To prepare, bring everything you need to stay warm and comfy - yoga mat, blankets, pillows. If you prefer to sit, you are welcome to do so. Typically, to fully enjoy a sound bath, one will close their eyes, absorbing the experience auditorily and physically.

Pay class by class orrrrr save BIG when you buy a 10 Class Punch Card or 5 Class Punch Card - (includes all tools, glazes, and firings as well as 10 or 5 lbs of clay. Additional clay costs $1 per lb) Your punch card will be kept at the front desk, making each class check-in as simple as a wave, a smile, and a *click*.

GRA now offer's a monthly Paint Your Own Pottery class - the first Wednesday of the month. Down in the studio we have a variety of ceramics ready to be painted ranging from $5-$20!

*This class also doubles as an option to glaze pieces created in -Throwing 101- ie. If you sign up for Throwing 101 in January, and make some pieces you want to keep/glaze, sign up for this class the following month (February in this case)

Are you interested in learning how to throw pottery on the wheel?? Or are you looking for some hands on learning/refining of your skills with some extra help from Frances? Well look no further! We have got you covered at Great River Arts in Little Falls!

Throwing 101 is offered monthly, on the first Saturday of the month from 10am-12pm. In each class we will go over some of the basics of clay, the 4 main steps of throwing, as well as tips and tricks along the way. 

There is no "trimming" portion of the class. The goal of Throwing 101 is to learn through the practie of doing. Each participant will be given three 2# balls of clay. If you choose to keep any pieces, you're welcome to glaze/fire pieces via a day pass or as a part of our monthly Paint-Your-Own-Pottery ($5).
