Description
The Role County Hall Pottery is a vibrant new ceramics studio and gallery dedicated to celebrating and supporting the art of clay in all its forms.
Our gallery, which opened in May 2024, hosts exhibitions throughout the year, showcasing a diverse range of ceramic work. In September 2024, we launched our studio, where we offer a dynamic selection of classes, including masterclasses and beginner-friendly sessions.
Our Potter In Residence programme offers artists the opportunity to develop their practice, establish professional connections, and work within a supportive community of like-minded creatives. We are seeking a talented and enthusiastic ceramic artist/designer/potter to join us for a year-long residency.
The residency provides the time, space, and resources to experiment and produce a new body of work. If you are ready to take your practice to the next level and join a dynamic new organisation that is set to become a significant name in contemporary ceramics, apply today!
