New Policy for Sculpting

We are a working pottery studio, and everything you see on our shelves is made right here in-house. None of our pieces are mass-produced — each one is as unique as the artist who created it.
We love encouraging creativity and are happy to support your pottery journey! We offer clay for sale by the pound so you can come in, experiment, and explore this beautiful artform.
If you plan to work in the studio, we do ask that you come in with some basic pottery knowledge. While we’re glad to offer light guidance, we’re also actively creating pieces for the shop, so we aren’t always able to provide in-depth instruction on the spot.
If you’re looking for more hands-on help, we recommend signing up for one of our classes, where we cover foundational techniques like coiling, slab building, and form construction.
