Many of Studio Mie Kim's one-day intro wheel-throwing dates across July-September show as sold out on the studio's own booking page.
Every course currently listed by Maison Stoï (beginner and intermediate) is marked 'Épuisé' (sold out), with a newsletter as the only path to new openings.
Several of Le Chat Pompette's classes and Studio Céramique Sud-Ouest's only listed workshop were out of stock/sold out at time of research.
A 2026 Montreal price guide pegs discovery workshops at $60-$120, beginner multi-week courses at $300-$500 and memberships at $150-$400/month, warning that some studios add $5-$15 per piece for firing.
Reviews of Atelier Cône10 praise instructors (Sophia, Jeff) for attentive, clear guidance to students of all levels.
Les Faiseurs' café-plus-studio format and bilingual, beginner-tailored instructors are repeatedly highlighted in reviews and local guides.
How much is a first pottery session in Montreal?
Most first sessions we checked run $10–$30. The cheapest way in right now is $10.
Which places let you try once?
10 of 16 run a one-off or drop-in session, so you can try pottery without committing to a course: Argile Atelier, Atelier Cône10, Atelier Forma and others.
Do you need to bring anything?
Not to start. 9 of the places listed include materials or equipment in the price of a beginner session, so you can turn up empty-handed.
Can you do pottery on a weekday evening?
Yes — 5 list evening sessions. Check the schedule note on each card below, since exact nights shift term to term.
