Community Clayworks: A Community Pottery Studio in Wenatchee
We are a collective of artists, teachers, and pottery enthusiasts who have come together to open Community Clayworks, a volunteer run nonprofit pottery studio in the heart of downtown Wenatchee. What began as a shared vision is now a vibrant, fully opened space for creativity, connection, and collaboration. Our mission is to provide an accessible environment where artists of all backgrounds and skill levels can explore the art of pottery, engage in creative expression, and build meaningful connections - and we're excited to welcome the community into the studio at last!

Community Clayworks is offering memberships with extended open-studio access for makers of all levels. Classes and workshops will be launching soon, providing opportunities for structured learning and hands-on exploration. We’ll also host gallery events and community showcases where members and future students can share their work.

Having raised the initial capital to bring the studio to life, we now seek funding to maintain the space, expand programs, continue offering low-cost classes and memberships, and purchase or replace equipment as needed. Every contribution helps ensure Community Clayworks remains an accessible, inspiring home for artists of all skill levels to learn, create, and connect.
