About Us

Hot Flash Pottery is Veronica and Lupe, a mother and daughter owned ceramic studio. We specialize in wheel thrown and hand built pottery, but really we just love to play with mud.

When we're not at the studio we're gardening, cooking, spending time outdoors, or hanging out with family.

Life is good at the pottery shop and we'd love to share our craft with you!

MEETING NEW AND INTERESTING PEOPLE IS ALWAYS A PLUS. THE CLASS ITSELF WAS EDUCATIONAL AND MOST OF ALL COMFORTABLE. THERE WAS NO PRESSURE. IT WAS JUST THE FUN AND EXCITEMENT OF LEARNING A NEW SKILL. I’LL BE BACK. J

THIS WAS SUCH A FUN CLASS! MARK IS A VERY LAID BACK AND PATIENT INSTRUCTOR WHO CREATES A SAFE ENVIRONMENT TO JUST EXPERIMENT AND HAVE FUN. I APPRECIATE THE HANDS-ON NATURE OF THE COURSE BECAUSE IT FORCES YOU TO CONFRONT YOUR INSECURITIES ON THE WHEEL AND JUST GO FOR IT. I'D LOVE TO COME BACK FOR THE BEGINNER CLASS NEXT TIME!

MARK IS SO GOOD AT TEACHING EACH OF THE STEPS TO CREATING A PIECE ON THE WHEEL! HE EXPLAINS EACH STEP CLEARLY AND ALSO DEMONSTRATES AND COMES AROUND TO EACH STUDENT TO HELP WHEN YOU FEEL UNCERTAIN OR NEED TO BE POINTED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. GREAT EXPERIENCE!

I AM CURRENTLY IN MY SECOND CLASS AT HOT FLASH POTTERY STUDIO AND I HAVE TO ADMIT, I MIGHT BE HOOKED! IF YOU ARE NEW TO WHEEL THROWING I'D HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE SHORTER (BEGINNING) CLASS TO INTRODUCE YOU TO THE WHEEL AND HELP YOU LEARN BASIC TECHNIQUES. THE CONTINUING CLASS HAS BEEN AWESOME FOR HELPING SOLIDIFY SKILLS AND TO TRY A FEW NEW THINGS. THE OWNERS/INSTRUCTORS, VERONICA & LUPE ARE AWESOME - FRIENDLY & SUPER HELPFUL! IF YOU LIVE ANYWHERE IN THE VICKSBURG AREA, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO TAKE A SPIN OVER TO HOT FLASH AND CHECK 'EM OUT!
