Business Spotlight: Social Pottery Co. Brings a New Way to Get Creative in Anderson

There is a new reason to put the phones down, grab a paintbrush and make something together in Anderson.

Social Pottery Co. is officially open, bringing a paint-your-own pottery experience to 2406 North Main Street, Suite F.

The studio celebrated its ribbon cutting and grand opening on October 1 and now Anderson residents have a new creative option for date nights, family outings, friend get-togethers and those afternoons when you simply want to do something different.

So, How Does It Work?

If you have never tried a paint-your-own pottery studio, the idea is refreshingly simple.

You start by choosing a pottery piece you want to make your own.

Then comes the fun part: painting it however you want.

You do not need to consider yourself an artist or arrive with a perfect design already planned.

The point is to sit down, slow down and create something that is actually yours.

Once you are finished painting, Social Pottery Co. takes care of the glazing and firing process.

After that process is complete, your finished pottery is ready to take home.

More Than Just Painting Pottery

What makes a place like Social Pottery Co. interesting is that the pottery is only part of the experience.

It gives people something to do together that is not another restaurant meal, movie or shopping trip.

A couple can turn it into a creative date night. Friends can make it a girls' night. Parents can bring the family for an activity everyone can participate in.

And if you would rather go by yourself, there is nothing wrong with claiming a little creative time of your own.

You leave with more than something you painted. You leave with something connected to the time you spent making it.

Open Studio or Make It a Private Event

According to information provided for the business, open studio is available Wednesday through Saturday.

Current listed hours are Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Thursday and Friday from noon to 8 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Sunday through Tuesday are reserved for private parties and reservations.

That private option gives groups another idea for birthdays, celebrations, friend gatherings or other occasions where you want an activity built into the get-together.
