From Feeling to Form
At Tao of Clay we harmonize the artistry of clay with the therapeutic principles of Mindfulness and Organicity. It's a place where making art isn't just about what you create, but also about discovering yourself along the way. We promote immersing ourselves in the creative process, prioritizing our present experiences, and shaping not only objects but also individual growth. By nurturing both the artist and the art, we're fostering a passion for ceramics and helping people tap into their inner creativity in a welcoming communal space.
We encourage engagement through memberships, classes, workshops with guest artists, and browsing our retail shop. Classes are open to people of all skill levels. We offer a diverse curriculum which encompasses throwing, hand-building, and glaze development. Membership is available to individuals who possess the ability to work independently and express an interest in becoming part of our community. Members enjoy discounts on classes, workshops, and in our retail space.
The foundational principle of Tao of Clay is the incorporation of Mindfulness, Organicity, Non-violence, and Mind-Body Holism into the ceramic process. We see the experiential nature of clay as an opportunity to engage in self-exploration and self-awareness. By engaging with this ideology we grow not only as artists but also as individuals.
