Art is hard, especially when fortified by the flames of a sintering kiln. Make a piece of sturdy, ceramic eye candy with today's Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of personalized pottery and studio time at Paint on Pottery Too in Williamsburg.

Paint on Pottery Too fosters a welcoming space for both adults and children to discover their artistic acumen. After selecting a piece of unpainted bisque pottery, greenhorn artisans employ the studio's provided paint, brushes, and trio of flute-playing muses to colorize their crafts. The terra-cotta masterpieces, are then fired in the kiln, sealing in their personalized paintwork, and stored safely until artists return to scoop them up a few days later. Visitors can emblazon their innermost thoughts across the clay edifices of ceramic vases ($15+), frames ($15+), mugs and plates ($15), and more. A friendly and knowledgeable staff guides visitors in the construction of personalized pottery, which can be used as gifts for friends or artsy receptacles for artisanal cheese dips. This Groupon is valid towards the mandatory studio fee ($6 for youth up to age 21; $8 for adults age 22 and up.
