Scouts Welcome

Paint Your Own Pottery welcomes all area scouts. Come in and earn your ceramic merit badge while having a great time.

Paint Your Own Pottery offers scouts a package that includes 1 1/2 hours of studio time, a piece of pottery, color, and glazing and firing. And because we know the importance of your ceramic badge, our well-trained staff will make a presentation on the various facets of the ceramic process:

The presentation content covers molds, pouring of molds, glazes and under glazes, and various firing techniques.

If permitted, scouts will be able to visit Paint Your Own Pottery's firing room to have a look at how a kiln operates.

Price: $16.99 per scout. (Scout leaders should bring their nonprofit tax information to avoid sales tax.) All above event reservation and deposit requirements apply. Paint Your Own Pottery will notify the scout leader when the pieces are available for pickup (approx. five to six days). See above for reservation and deposit requirements.
