Canberra Potters is the leading ceramic arts organisation in the ACT and one of Australia’s few fully integrated ceramics centres. Since 1975, we’ve fostered creativity, skill, and connection through clay.

Based at the Watson Arts Centre, just 5km from Canberra’s CBD, we are a not-for-profit community organisation dedicated to celebrating and advancing ceramic arts through inspiring classes, exhibitions, events, and community programs.

Our facilities include teaching and members’ workshops, a gallery and shop, extensive kiln and glazing facilities, and artist studios — including one for our artist-in-residence program.

Membership is open to anyone with an interest in pottery — from complete beginners to practicing ceramic artists. Members enjoy access to the members-only workshop, discounted classes, kiln hire and firing services, monthly email updates, supplier discounts and more.
