 Upcoming events at the Transylvania Community Arts Council Pottery Studio!


Open Studio Program:


Please join us Tuesday nights from 5:30-8:00 and Thursday afternoons 1:30-4:00 for our open studio. If you're looking for self-guided time to practice your skills or make your own work, this is a great opportunity. The studio houses 8 potter's wheels, a slab roller, and all basic tools needed for throwing and handbuilding. Open studio sessions include use of community glazes and firings in our electric kiln. Clay is available for purchase for those who don't keep their own on hand. $120 for 4 sessions. 


Empty Bowls Bowl-a-thon:


Come make bowls with us to benefit the Bread of Life 2023 Empty Bowls event. This is a unique chance for potters to use our skills to help those in need in our area! Our studio will be open and clay will be provided for making bowls the evening of February 8th from 5:30 to 8:00. 

If you can't come to our bowl making event but wish to help, we will accept completed donated bowls thru-out the month of February.
