About Us

At Clayways, we believe everyone has a creative spark sometimes it just needs a bit of clay to bring it out!

We’re a small but passionate team of potters and teachers, and nothing makes us happier than seeing people smile as they discover the joy of making. Our studio is a relaxed, friendly space where learning from our mistakes are part of the fun. Check out some of our student pots and see what they’ve been creating.
