Giving Thanks…

Still reeling from the aftermath of the recent Presidential election, as we wonder what lies ahead for this country, all of us at sfclayworks still have a great deal to be thankful for. Five years ago when we set our sights on maintaining the creative clay community that we were all a part of at "The Clay Studio", we gathered our resources and energy to create this wonderful place to work. Five years have a gone by in a flash and as we head into the future we are thankful to our founding members, our incredible hands-up workers and, of course, our amazing students and community members. Together we are all a part of this supportive and creative community at sfclayworks. No matter what else [...]

Outside of her busy day to day responsibilities, Jee finds time to slip into the studio and get lost in her meticulously carved porcelain pieces. Sometimes when we look at our own work change is hard to see, [...]

Seasoned Living: Ceramic Works of Marcia Rosser

It is 2016 and already five years since we all took the plunge to create sfclayworks. It has always been a desire of ours to have an active gallery space in the front of the studio. We are pleased to announce that besides our Annual Student and Community show, our SF Open Studio Show, and our yearly guest artist show, we are finally making that happen. When we started tossing around the idea for our new plan, we had the difficult task of figuring out who we wanted to showcase during our first display. We quickly decided that long time studio member, Marcia Rosser, would be a fantastic selection. Throughout the years we have watched Marcia move from making pottery predominately thrown on the wheel, to her fantastical salt [...]

Another Great Year…

We are grateful for another successful year at sfclayworks. Four years have passed since we collectively decided that we needed to create a clay studio to continue our journey in the ceramic arts; it has been an experience that has gone by so quickly.  As we head into our fifth year at sfclayworks, we have grown into an amazing collection of interesting members who all share a love for playing in the "mud". We have become a blend of adopted, and new traditions that help bring our community together. Besides the opportunity to share our love of clay through our classes and community studio access, we continue to look forward to our mid-year guest artist workshops, our student and community exhibitions, SF Open Studios, and our beloved end of the year Box Party celebration. The Box [...]
