This is a safe space for all to mindfully explore clay, personal expression, and identity.

Our mission is to enhance accessibility to the ceramic arts in Seattle by providing a variety of programming available regardless of race, class, gender, age, ability, education, country of birth, citizenship, religion, financial income, and sexual orientation. Programming centers around building and creating a safe place for community with partnering organizations, students, studio members, teachers, and featured artists in the gallery.

    Instructor

    “I emphasize a holistic approach to pottery with a happiness and care of the body as priority. Clay is a form of meditation and teacher, not just while learning to center on the wheel but also to bring wholeness and center to one self.”
