We can't wait to welcome you into our growing community of ceramic artists. Becoming a member means joining a studio where everyone keeps our space creative, clean, and safe. Users contribute a small volunteer task each month, and we all take responsibility for cleaning up our own workspace. There are no paid staff-- only volunteers! 

To ensure a smooth and safe experience for everyone, studio users should be able to work independently. Recent instruction in basic ceramics and glazing—or equivalent studio experience—is required.

Once you join our community, you are always a part of it and are welcome to our members-only benefits even if you aren't an active studio user.

If you’re new to clay or would like a refresher, the Los Alamos Arts Council offers classes regularly to help you build the skills you need, and there are private instructors we can connect you with.

There is a one-time ‘joining fee’ that supports the future of our community. 

Once you’re a member, you may use the studio at current session rates. Even when you’re not actively using the studio, you remain part of our community and are always welcome at social and continuing education events.

To support access to ceramics for all, there are three options:

Individual: $150

Family: $150 + $50 per additional member

Student: $75
