About Us

Welcome to Jade Pottery

We're a small, family-owned ceramic studio rooted in Genesee County, NY — and we've been bringing people together through clay and creativity since 2010.

Our Story

Jade Pottery was founded by Sara Manurung with a simple belief: making something with your hands should be joyful, accessible, and a little bit fun. What started as a one-person studio has grown into a beloved local experience — offering paint-your-own pottery, hands-on classes, private events, and handcrafted pieces you can take home.

Over the years, we've had the privilege of hosting thousands of guests across Genesee County and beyond — from first-timers who've never touched clay to seasoned creatives looking for a new outlet. Every piece that leaves our studio carries a little piece of that story.

What Makes Us Different

We're not a drop-in craft store — we're an experience. Here's what you can expect when you visit or book with us:

  • BYOB Paint Nights — Bring your favorite bottle and paint your own pottery in a relaxed, social setting. No experience needed.
  • Private Parties & Events — Birthdays, bachelorettes, team outings, and more. We handle the setup so you can focus on the fun.
  • Classes for All Levels — From beginner wheel-throwing to glazing workshops, our classes are designed to meet you where you are.
  • Handcrafted Pieces — Browse and take home our collection of finished and unfinished ceramic pieces, each made with care in our studio.

Our Community

We're proud to be part of the fabric of Genesee County. We partner with local venues across the region to bring pottery experiences directly to your community — so whether you're in Pavilion, Batavia, or a neighboring town, there's likely a Jade Pottery event near you.

Our studio at 10115 Creek Rd, Pavilion NY 14525 is our home base, but our events travel. Check our Events page to see what's coming up near you.

What Our Guests Say

"I came in knowing nothing about pottery and left with a piece I'm genuinely proud of. Sara made the whole experience so welcoming and fun. We're already planning our next visit!"

— A happy guest

"We booked a private paint night for my sister's birthday and it was the highlight of the whole weekend. The studio is beautiful, the vibe is relaxed, and everyone left with something they made themselves. Highly recommend."

— A private event guest

"Jade Pottery is one of those hidden gems in Western NY. The classes are well-paced, the instruction is clear, and it's just a genuinely good time. I've been back three times now."
