We’re an inclusive and friendly studio offering a variety of classes and workshops for all experience levels. There’s something for everyone, with classes designed for kids (ages 6–12), youth (ages 12–17), and adults (18+).

Not at all! We offer classes for every skill level—from total beginners to experienced potters looking to build on their skills.

Please reach out if you have any accessibility questions—we’re always happy to chat about how we can best accommodate you.

ClayWorks Studio is located at 111 Sherwood Drive, Unit 3, in the east-most building of the Brantford Artisan’s Village complex (the old Cordage building). You can find an interactive map on our contact page here: 👉 Contact Us

For most classes, you’ll need basic pottery tools, an apron, and a towel. Some beginner classes include tools, so be sure to check your class description for details. You can also visit our class info page for more information: 👉 Class Info

We ask that all clay be purchased through our studio to make sure it’s compatible with our kilns and firing processes.

Students who have completed at least one full 10-week class term are eligible to purchase studio time outside of classes. For full details, the schedule, and a list of monitors, use the link below: 👉 Student Studio Time

If a class is cancelled due to inclement weather or instructor illness, we’ll schedule a make-up class. Unfortunately, classes missed for any other reason can’t be accommodated.

A full refund will be given for cancellations made up to two weeks before the start of class. If you cancel with less than two weeks’ notice, you’ll receive a refund minus a 20% administration fee. Unfortunately, no refunds can be issued once classes have started.

Yes! We offer custom workshops for team building, school groups, and special occasions. Feel free to get in touch—we’d love to help you plan something special and provide a quote.
