Northern Clay Center

Northern Clay Center offers a variety of clay experiences for homeschool students age 6 and up! We create custom ceramic classes—led by professional artists. You can pick from a variety of themes to suit the interests of your group, from fantastical creatures to fabulous functional forms! In addition to the hands-on instruction, your group can tour our facility and view the latest exhibition, wander through the sales gallery to see the work of over 50 ceramic artists, and witness artists creating work in their studios.

Handbuilding classes are 2 hours in length and are suitable for ages 6 and up; wheel-throwing classes are 3 hours in length and suitable for ages 9 and up. Each participant will create their own unique piece of ceramic art. All work made during a clay event is clear-glazed and fired by NCC’s staff, and is food safe. Work is be ready to pick up two to three weeks after the event date.

NCC is a nonprofit working to advance the ceramic arts for artists, learners, and the community, through education, exhibitions, and artist services.
