Pottery Studio Membership
Want to make but don't have the space?
We are excited to open our studio to independent potters in the Baltimore community. Whether you're a wheel-thrower, hand-builder, or you dabble in both, we invite you to use our spacious and fully equipped space. Not only will you have the benefit of all tools and glazes, but you'll have access to the hive-mind of a community of potters that want to learn from each other and grow together.

Historic Industrial Location
