Clay for All: Making Pottery More Accessible

At MUD Ceramics Club, we believe everyone deserves the chance to get their hands in clay — regardless of income. Creativity is a human need, not a luxury. That’s why we offer a limited number of discounted spots in each session through our Clay for All program.

This is a small but heartfelt way we can make our studio more accessible to folks in our community who are deeply drawn to pottery but may not be in a position to afford a class right now.

We don’t require proof of income — we trust you to apply if this would truly make a difference for you.

How It Works

  • A limited number of discounted spots are available per session.

  • These are sliding-scale or pay-what-you-can rates.

  • Applicants fill out a short form telling us about themselves and their interest in pottery.

  • Our team reads every application and selects a small number of recipients based on need and space available.

  • Applications are reviewed with care and kindness.

    Who This Is For

    This program is intended for folks who:

    • Feel a real pull to explore ceramics

    • Are experiencing financial hardship, limited income, or other barriers to access

    • Are committed to showing up and participating fully if selected

    Whether you’re a student, single parent, artist, teacher, newcomer, or just going through a tough season — if this would help make pottery possible for you, we hope you’ll apply.

  • Applications are reviewed before each new session (quarterly/seasonally). If you’re not selected right away, we encourage you to apply again in the future.
