I began my clay adventure 6 years ago and have never stopped. It is an amazing experience to play in clay. There is nothing more satisfying than a kiln opening and seeing a beautiful piece created by your own hands. The instructors, equipment and atmosphere are the best!

When I retired and did not know what to do with myself, I tried many things but did not feel at home until I found Sarasota Clay Company. I love the familial environment of the studio, the patient support from the experts as I learn an try to improve my skills. Everyone here is so supportive and provides realistic coaching and tutoring for those of us just starting out. I so enjoy my time in the studio and the people here, employees, clients, teachers etc. Everyone is so helpful for a beginner and a passionate potter!!!
