Our Story

Hands on Clay Studio is a small-batch pottery practice, specializing in crafting functional ceramics for everyday use. Our team comprises skilled artisans dedicated to producing handmade, quality pottery that seamlessly combines functionality and mindfulness. Operating as a small practice enables us to prioritize attention to all the small details, and ensuring that our work is affordable and sustainable for everyone. 

The studio is a great stepping stone for individuals of all levels. We’re a highly collaborative and supportive team, coming together to ensure that participants receive quality learning sessions, from the first-time clay student to the most experienced potter. Learning to throw pottery prioritizes practicing over quality. Finding  a balance between quantity and quality is essential for growth as a potter. As a beginner quantity helps build foundational skills and confidence, quality ensures that each piece that is made is a reflection of craftsmanship and artistic vision. The goal is to practice diligently and to push one’s skills to the limits. In ceramics, the more you practice, the greater your proficiency will become. Remembering all new skills require practice, practice, practice.
