The

Ceramics Workshop

provides a space to practice almost all ceramic techniques, such as handbuilding, printing, and wheel-throwing techniques. Our emphasis is on experimenting with different techniques, types of clay, and glazes, as well as working independently. Those with prior knowledge of ceramic materials and techniques will receive an introduction to our workshop procedures. Those interested without any prior knowledge can learn different techniques in our introductory courses.

Equipment

    • Two pottery wheels
    • Two kilns with temperatures of up to max. 1300° C
    • Different types of clay and glazes

 

For the use of the workshop a membership in Künstlerhaus Stuttgart is mandatory!

 

Attention: Due to the high demand, our capacities are exhausted. At the moment there are no free places in the ceramics workshop.

 

For your understanding: Since it is not possible to produce, dry, fire, glaze, and fire again ceramics in one day, storage facilities are needed to keep the objects safe during the whole production process (several days and weeks). And these capacities are limited in our small workshop. So that means, even if a booking slot is free, it unfortunately does not mean that we have free spaces.

 

Use of the workshop is by arrangement on a daily basis. Existing material such as clay, glazes, or other raw materials can be used for a fee.
