We are a ceramics and pottery studio located here in Tacoma, WA. Brought to you by April Stout and Lucy Nilan. Both Washington transplants and avid lovers of clay. The two of us met on a “blind date” set up by our friend and local potter/sculpture Heather Cornelius.

We are a woman and veteran-owned ceramics studio offering tiered memberships with 24/7/365 access, private spaces, classes for all ages and skill levels, private lessons, events, and one-time experiences.

Our resident artists, members, students and the community in clay are our family. It is important to us to help foster all that is clay and joy. We are an inclusive, relaxed and supportive community.

Do you have a stressful job and clay is your way to decompress or relax? We love that! We want to enjoy that with you.

Do you have a passion for clay and want to build a hobby, side hustle, work for galleries, make it a full-time gig or more? Join us so we can be that little spark beside you, encouraging you.

This is a space where people of different jobs, backgrounds, viewpoints, races, gender identities, sexual preferences and more can come together and create beautiful objects out of clay.
