Pottery Studio

At Portsmouth Guildhall

We offer open access memberships to enable people of all skill levels to use the studio. These open access memberships are tailored to allow intermediate skilled and high-level skilled individuals to operate independently and as part of a broader ceramicist community.

History: What used to be situated in the building which was originally a Victorian school in Portsmouth, the ceramics studio stems back to the buildings’ Arts College days before the contents of the studio were relocated to what is now the University of Portsmouth’s Eldon Building.

The equipment never left the building and was later used as part of Clay Station. The ceramics studio was handed over to The Makers Guild in 2017. Now that the Omega Centre is being turned into a SEND Sixth Form College, we have moved and invested in new equipment to carry on the legacy of Ceramics created in the centre of Portsmouth City.

We will be relaunching the ceramics and pottery offer in April 2025
