The Hot Spot Studios Liberty Station | Pottery Painting - San Diego, California

I recently visited The Hot Spot and had an amazing experience!

The studio is cozy and welcoming, with a wide variety of pottery pieces to choose from. The staff is friendly and helpful, providing guidance and tips for painting techniques.

The atmosphere is not very relaxing, lots of kids banging on the tables and screaming, be prepared.

I loved how they had a great selection of paints and tools, allowing for creativity to flow.

It’s a little pricey, ended up paying $75 for two pieces so just keep that in mind.

Overall, it was a fantastic way to spend an afternoon, and I can't wait to go back and create more beautiful pieces!

I finally got to do this!!! It was a super fun experience here with my two girl friends. We came here at 11am on Saturday morning. This place gets packed very fast. It is very popular. There’s a kid party there, I can tell this is a perfect place for kids’ activities. The price here is very reasonable. Basically you choose one pottery from the shelf, different style has different prices, they are around $25-$50. And then they provide all the supplies and they will bake the finished pottery for you. And you will come back to pick it up in about 10 days. I’ll bring my other friends here. I can tell everyone has fun.

We had lots of fun! There are so many cute projects to choose from. The space feels nice too. There are snacks and drinks for purchase. Also love the setup of tables outside. We'll definitely go back!

A must go if you're artistic or have kids and looking for something fun to do with them. There's something for everyone there...slime station, mosaic/canvas, candles and all sorts of pottery. The staff was so nice and helpful. Try and go early because it gets busy

I am at a loss of words. The staff here has left me speechless. Their kindness and hospitality surpassed my expectations. I brought in my girl scout troop for a art day. My troop felt at home and felt so empowered. Each one of them had different projects and the staff was still able to keep a good eye on them and provide support. They did not feel rushed although they were ready to close. They continued to help them through and cater to them. Towards the end one of my girls broke her ceramic. The staff did not make her feel embarrassed as she was emotional. They simply said let's get this glass out of the way offering a new piece to her. This was a moment for her that she felt so frustrating and crushed but the staff was able to turn it around. In addition this facility loved that we were girl scouts. They support the community heavily. They offered us a special rate as the girls used there cookie money to pay for the event. I would highly recommend the hot spot and would come back with my own family as well. Special mention to MJ for making this all possible!
