A Creative & Educational Pottery Experience for Scout Troops

Bring your troop to A Maze in Pottery in Briarcliff Manor, Westchester County, NY, for a fun, hands-on pottery painting experience!

Scouts will complete a pottery project selected in advance by the troop leader while learning about ceramics, glazing, and firing. Our Creative Assistant will guide the troop through the project and answer questions as they go.

Your Scout Event Includes:

• 1.5 hours of creative fun
• Pottery project selected in advance by the troop leader
• Step-by-step guidance from a dedicated A-Maze-in Creative Assistant
• Paints, brushes and all necessary pottery-painting supplies
• Kiln room tour
• Introduction to glazing, firing and how a kiln works
• Question-and-answer session about pottery paints, glazes, firing and painting techniques
• Glazing and firing of each Scout’s finished pottery

There is a minimum of 5 Scouts required to book a Scout event.

Finished pottery will be wrapped and ready for pickup one week after your event, after 3:00 PM.

Is this a drop-off event?
Because of our studio’s limited capacity, we ask troop leaders to let parents know that this is a drop-off event unless they are actively assisting the troop.

Parents or family members who would like to stay are welcome to paint their own pottery in our open studio area, subject to table availability.

Is this a private event?
Your Scout group will have a reserved area for the event. The front of our studio remains open to other customers during regular business hours unless the entire studio is reserved for an additional charge.

How many Scouts do we need to book?
There is a minimum of 4 Scouts required to book a Scout event. We can accommodate up to 40 guests.

Can I change the number of Scouts attending?
Yes. Please let us know as soon as possible if your number changes. We schedule staff and prepare projects based on your expected attendance.

When will our pottery be ready?
Finished pottery will be ready for pickup one week after your event, after 3:00 PM.

The troop leader can pick up and distribute everyone’s pottery, or Scouts may pick up their pieces individually. Please let your group know which option you prefer.

We are not responsible for pottery left at the studio more than two months after the event

How much is the deposit?
A $90 deposit is required at the time of booking to reserve your date and time. The deposit is applied toward your final event balance.

If you cancel less than 14 days but more than 7 days before your event, you may reschedule or receive studio credit, but no refund will be issued.

Cancellations made fewer than 7 days before the event will forfeit the deposit.

Are Scout troops charged sales tax?
If your troop is tax-exempt, please have your valid New York State tax-exempt documentation ready when completing your booking so the appropriate tax exemption can be applied.
