More news... Welcome to Clay Art Space! Anchorage's community clay art studio, where you can create with real clay. Check out our new Homeschool and School-From-Home art classes for students in elementary through high school. Learn how to draw or sketch using pencils and colored pencils. We've added our Combo Wheel & Hand-building Clay class back to our menu for January 2021. As we get the ball rolling again, more classes will be added. But we are glad to be restarting! Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) Update from the pottery studio: We are open with new hours as of 10/07/2020 for the store, gallery, PYOP, pick-up/drop-off & kiln firing services & education. We are still concerned with reducing our exposure risk to COVID-19 to keep all of us safe and healthy so your help is needed. If you are not well, please isolate. We sell Paint Your Own Pottery Take Home Kits, Mudtools, Clay and other pottery supplies. You can drop off your clay items for kiln firings. Please call or email us if you need a specific time. You can also shop online for some items. When you come to the store, please wear your mask and sign in to facilitate contact tracing, in case it is needed. Wheel throwing classes have resumed with limited spaces, new hygiene and social distancing rules to follow. Only 6 spaces will be filled per class. The wheels are spaced 6-ft apart for COVID-19. Masks are required during class. We have moved a couple wheels to another room for people who know what they're doing already and want to continue spinning clay. The Throw-Down Events are postponed for now. In order to survive, we need a lot of financial support to see us through the upcoming months and to pay the rent. Please donate, or support us through purchases. We are not able to offer enough services to cover the budget while the economic crisis continues. The Paint Your Own Pottery room is open by reservation. Also, take home kits are still available to purchase on our website. You can RSVP a time to come in with your bubble group to paint pottery on specified days or the weekend. If you can, please donate to our GoFundMe page to help us continue to provide our unique arts education opportunities for you. Many thanks to all who have helped in 2020!
