Where is a store in Los Angeles that you can buy clay and make pottery then have it fired?
I’m looking for a store where i can just purchase clay and use their wheel and kiln, most of everything I’ve found online is 100$ for 2 weeks worth of classes or something similar.

Take a ceramics class for audit at a community college.
