We just wrapped up an amazing 8 week session of making stools! Taught by Alex Lewis. Here are 3 of the 4 that were finished! Flower stool by Faith Fetzer, purple stool by Mik Dean, and pinchy stool by Kalie Yip (not official titles 😂)

Two new classes added!

Preorders on hats are live! alleycatceramics.com/shop/p/alley...

Monclay is tomorrow and you know what that means! Free open studio and 2lbs of clay from 4-8pm! Come hang out and make something cute! Just pay for what you want fired 🫶🏼

Applying to a show about sports and making trophies that I wish I could have won when I was in the little leagues. So far I’ve got: Most dandelions picked in one inning and best cartwheel on the field.

Update on my tidepool bowl! Really happy with the outcome. There’s so much dimension in the pools.

Hosting a chili cookoff to raise funds for our gallery! If you want to help, we’re looking for bowl donations, silent auction items, and fun activities to go alongside it! Link to apply to the cookoff as a contestant 👇

the mugs are done! i’ll be posting them on my website www.circlecityclay.com later today! $35 each including shipping, $20 each for local pickup. #ceramics #pottery #indianapolis

Just added a few one time classes to our website. 20% off if you follow me on Bluesky and use code BLUESKY at checkout! This applies to any class that’s currently live, and ends March 1 🫶🏼

Our studio is hosting a stool making class right now and today was load in! We only had one casualty (broken leg, but we’re adapting!) but overall, this went smoothly despite being so stressful 😅 can’t wait to share the students final pieces!

Just added a Saturday morning 6 wk class! We still have some spots in our Sunday morning handbuilding and one spot left in Thursday evening wheelthrowing! Can’t swing it all up front? Happy to do payment plans 🫶🏼

Can’t stop thinking about her. Interested in submitting a show proposal or hosting a workshop? Getting 2025 shows on the calendar. Email [email protected]

I’m opening a gallery, and I wanted to show some where we started vs where we are now pics. I’m so excited to bring life to this sweet building and fill it with art and community. Can’t wait to introduce Patina to the world (or at least Indianapolis) this spring.

Made a little fruit bowl inspired by the cliffs and tide pools I saw in La Jolla. *goes to California once and makes it their whole personality*

What a dream. Feeling very inspired✨

In San Diego for my birthday and we’ve already found so much cool pottery! Any recommendations for studios to check out our last day here?

How I’ve been feeling lately

Third time is the charm, right? (We’re changing glaze direction after 20 cup fails)

Just dropped classes for end of Feb- March! If you’re local to Indy and looking for some good laughs fun times, take a class with us! PS- Our handbuilt vessels class is a pay what you can class. As always, we offer payment plans if you need em!

I make pottery. It’s super gay. NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU. This vase is about self empowerment but also has a menacing aura

“If you feel despair, if you feel defeated, if you catch yourself dissociating or focusing on what our oppressors are doing rather than on what you can do yourself—that is territory that the enemy has claimed within you.”

My birthday is in 10 days and this is the only thing I want.

Really proud to call this talented and caring person a friend and neighbor. If you’re looking at getting into stained glass or just want to follow someone cool, give Alyssa a follow.

The disco ball has made it back to the studio but gloop seems to think this is her ride home 🛸 👽 ✌🏼

I promise I own/ make work in a pottery studio but I’d rather just post what my cat does in said pottery studio.
