Make a Trophy! Celebrate Somebody! 
October 7, 2026 at 4:00 PM
119 W Washington St, Napoleon, Ohio 

Part of Wednesday Nights @ Soaring Arts and Joy in the Making

Wednesday, October 7
4:00–7:00 PM
Soaring Arts Studio
Drop in anytime!

This week, we’re making TROPHIES.

Not necessarily for being the best.
Not for coming in first.
Not because somebody handed out a score.
Just because sometimes people deserve to be celebrated.

Choose your adventure:

Studio Express: Polymer Trophies
Create a tiny polymer trophy—funny, heartfelt, weird, ridiculous, or completely unexpected.

Pottery Studio: Ceramic Trophies
Get your hands in clay and build a one-of-a-kind ceramic trophy from scratch.

MAKE IT FOR THE COMMUNITY — FREE!

Make a trophy for someone in our community who deserves a little recognition, and leave it with us to give away. 

Join us this night in nominating trophy recipients as well! 
Celebrate the person who keeps showing up! 
The person who makes things better.
The person who makes you laugh.
The person doing something nobody gives trophies for.

Want to make one to take home instead?
You can do that too!

Polymer Trophy — $10
Ceramic Trophy — $20

No experience. No registration. Just come make.

Because sometimes you don’t need to come in first place to deserve a trophy.

Completed pumpkins will be immediately loaded into the outdoor gas kiln, brought up to 1800 degrees and then taken out of the kiln while hot and put into a bucket of combustible materials. 30 minutes later, the pumpkins will be removed and will be ready to take home! Come enjoy this special opportunity to be a part of this AMAZING firing process.

Create a Ceramic Pumpkin

Wednesday, October 28, 2026 at 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM EDT

Join us as we partner with the Lumberyard Winery for this fun ceramic foldable pumpkin class on Wednesday, October 28th from 5:30-7PM!

You can now simultaneously make memories and get creative, while enjoying a glass of wine and a delicious plank, all in one relaxing space!

Are you new to pottery?

No problem!

Our Artists will teach you how to both sculpt and glaze this project from start to finish! It doesn’t matter if you are a pro or have never worked with clay before, the instructors will help you lean into your creativity!

After the class, the pumpkins will be taken back to Soaring Arts to dry. Then they’ll be fired for you. At that point, we’ll give you a call to let you know they’re ready for pick-up at the Winery, in plenty of time to put out for Thanksgiving!

All ages and abilities are welcome.

The class fee is $25!

This includes all the supplies needed, as well as the valuable instruction of our Artists!

*THE LUMBERYARD’S AMAZING FOOD AND DRINK MENU WILL BE AVAILABLE THIS NIGHT AS WELL AT AN ADDITIONAL COST!
