An open access ceramics studio in Leicester
Membership
The Clay Room is an open access ceramics studio in Leicester. We offer membership to a shared ceramics studio and use of equipment. Anyone who is confident working with clay can apply.
Our aim is to support emerging and existing ceramic artists in furthering their practice, whether you are aspiring to become professional or pursuing a personal interest in ceramics. Creativity is a social process. The benefits of working together include: improved development of individual practice, increased networking and opportunities to collaborate with other makers and the wider community.
Members should contribute to the studio community. There will be an opportunity to be part of developing a public program to include pottery classes, workshops, open studios and other events. While any public event could limit use of the space, they should enhance the sense of community.
