Join Our Community of Ceramic Makers in Bengaluru
Looking for more than just a pottery wheel? Join our Koramangala studio, where we nurture talent, provide expert mentorship, and help emerging artists showcase their work.
Networking and expanding your creative circle is a key benefit of our residency program. You will connect with a diverse group of artists, mentors, and enthusiasts who share your passion for ceramics.
A studio potter shares her experience at the Bengaluru Potters Market, an event we proudly sponsor. These markets are a fantastic opportunity for artists to connect, get feedback, and sell their work directly to the public.
Hear from an artist about the upcoming Bengaluru Studio Potters Market. We support these community events that bring together dozens of studio potters from across India to showcase everything from tableware to sculptural art.
It's that time of the year again. A glimpse into one of our group discussions where ideas are shared, and plans for our next big event, Arangetram, begin to take shape.
We believe in having fun along the way. Here, our Clay Station family engages in a friendly competition to see who has the best feel for clay, a testament to the lighthearted and supportive spirit of our studio.

About this collection
Being a studio potter can be isolating, but our Koramangala space is designed to change that. When you join our community, you get more than just a shelf for your work; you gain access to our mentorship program and a direct pathway to our annual 'Arangetram' gallery showcases. Whether you need peer-to-peer critique on a glaze test or someone to bounce ideas off while you throw, you will find a collaborative environment here.
Our approach to pottery is built on the belief that art grows when it is shared. For us, a studio is not just a place to buy equipment; it is a hub for connection, learning, and artistic evolution.
Why Join Our Maker Community
- Mentorship over isolation: Our residency program pairs emerging artists with senior practitioners who provide honest, constructive feedback. You are not just left to figure it out alone; you get the guidance needed to refine your hunar (skill).
- Professional exposure: We bridge the gap between hobbyist and professional through our 'Arangetram' debut showcases. This gives you a platform at venues like Karnataka Chitrakala Parishath to present, talk about, and sell your work to a real audience.
- Collaborative infrastructure: From shared glazing stations to collaborative firing schedules, our studio in Koramangala is equipped to handle everything from individual experimentation to high-volume production.
Residency Options
We offer structured residency programs for those serious about taking their ceramic work to the next level. Whether you are self-funded or applying for our fellowship, you get access to our Shimpo wheels, slab rollers, and specialized clay bodies. It is a space to experiment, fail, learn, and grow alongside other potters who are just as passionate about the medium as you are.
If you have 2 to 4 years of experience and are ready to dedicate time to developing a cohesive body of work, come by the studio. Let’s talk about your process and how we can support your journey from raw clay to a finished gallery piece.
Clay Station
We are a collective of makers who believe that clay work is better when it is shared. We are not just here to teach; we are here to walk the path with you, from the first messy wheel throw to your debut exhibition. Come experiment with our glazes, share a chai, and find your tribe in our Koramangala studio.
