The Potters' Studio is a one-of-a-kind ceramics center offering pottery classes; extensive open studio time; memberships, including 24/7 access; regular high-quality weekly firings; a gallery; and much more.
If you're a beginning potter, it's a great place to learn, and if you're a more experienced ceramics artist looking for a place to just do your own thing -- and even do your own firings, both electric and gas -- this is the place!
