Opened August 2025, Clayfire Cafe is a locally owned and operated DIY Pottery Studio, located at 195 Main Street, in the former Curious Cat Bookstore.
Outside of clay painting, we offer an assortment of coffee (served hot or iced), tea, apple cider, and hot chocolate.
No appointment necessary, no experience required and fun for all ages!
We are a walk in service, where you pick from our selection of hundreds of choices to paint, you can take as long as you like to finish an item, and once you are done we clear glaze your pottery and fire it in our on-site kiln and give you a pick up date. (Usually within 1 week).
-
We price our items individually on the bottom of each piece to include everything except the tax.
The prices range from only a few dollars up to 45 with most items in the 15-25 range.
-
You are welcome to take as long as you like to finish your pieces, and are welcome to continue working on something on another day, if you don’t finish in one sitting.
Average time to paint is 1-2 hours but stay as long as you like to finish your masterpiece.
-
The firing process is only an overnight process, but first we have to collect enough items to fill the kiln, as well as glaze each piece before loading, so the wait time depends on how busy we are.
(Usually within a week to get your piece back).
