Pottery at the Art League

Pottery Studio and Membership Details

The Pottery Studio is located next to the gallery of the Findlay Art League and is available for use by paying Pottery Studio Members. Pottery Studio Members also need to become members of The Findlay Art League.

If you join as a Pottery Member, you will have access to 6 electric wheels, a hand building & glazing table, and basic pottery tools. We have one electric kiln that is fired by teachers and selected experienced members. The kiln is fired when there is enough work to fill it, with class projects taking first priority. Bisque cone 06 and glaze cone 6 are the firing temperatures. Clay and glaze are not provided by the pottery studio.

Pottery Members are able to use the studio when pottery classes are not in session. This studio is meant for hobby potters and small amounts of production. Member storage space is available depending on the number of current members.

A Pottery Studio Committee plans pottery events, workshops, and studio cleaning days. All members are welcome and encouraged to participate. “Full details for membership outlined below”
