CLAYWAY COVID PRECAUTIONS

We will be exhibiting outside. We’ve procured tents and will also be set up in the kiln sheds. Our studio will be open as well for people who wish to enter. Masks are mandatory for everyone. Distancing is suggested and hand sanitizer is available on the tables for people wanting to pick up pots. Also, we have a check-in tent to remind everyone of the rules.

And remember, if you are unable to make the CLAYWAY ARTIST STUDIO TOUR this weekend, you can stop by our online Shopify store at…

ABOUT OUR WORKSHOPS

People come from around the world to teach and be taught in our large bright studio. We host 1-5 day workshops in a supportive and encouraging retreat-like atmosphere. All skill levels are welcome. Take a break, learn new techniques and ways of approaching your work. Be inspired, meet new people. Have a memorable experience – buy pots from the guest artists but, most of all – enjoy yourself!

Our studio, with its two floors, is in South Kent CT, USA, in a gorgeous part of the state, the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains. There are hiking trails and woods to explore before and after the workshops. Come early, work late – the studio is always open. We have thirteen wheels and plenty of work tables. There are electric kilns, a wood fire kiln and a propane soda kiln. Space may be rented in any of the kilns. Click on the firing page for the firing schedule and fee chart.

You’ll have easy access to and from Hartford BDL airport – a pleasant hour and a half drive from the airport to the studio and back. There are plenty of places to stay in the Kent area; Fife and Drum, Cornwall Inn, Starbucks, and a multitude of AirBnBs. Kent has a nice variety of restaurants, Kingsley Tavern, Franks, Fife and Drum, Namoo (Korean and Sushi), Shanghai (Chinese), Cozzy’s (pizza), plus the Warren General store for practically anything.
