Phones Down, Clay Up!

OPEN WITH COVID-SAFETY MEASURES IN PLACE

Clay By The Bay is a Ceramic Arts School and Studio in Nob Hill.  Unwind and get your creativity flowing, in a beautiful studio, full of bustling artists hard at work.    We are proud to support other local residents and businesses grow together through the joy of clay.  If you would like to host an event at our studio and get messy with your friends and colleagues, please contact us - we'll gladly work together to make your event special!


What?

Instructor-led clay making experience that you'll never forget .  Check out our various options below! We support groups big and small (6-30), guiding you through the process of pottery-making, while you create a mug or cup by hand and on the wheel.  Because the pieces need time to dry and have to go through the kilns 2 times before completing, you can pick up your pieces within 4-6 weeks from your event date.

  • Starting times can flex to fit your schedule!

This is a chance for each member of your team to create a really functional and usable piece of pottery. We provide texture tools to enhance the surface of your piece and step by step instruction to construct the form together.  The second part of the class is a chance for your team to try out the Pottery Wheel!
