Dear fellow artist,

Working in clay can sometimes be a solitary pursuit. But there are times that we need to share ideas, ask questions, search for solutions. There are times when we need a community of people who think like us, who feel like us, who love clay like us. That community is Potters Council.

You are cordially invited to join Potters Council–a distinguished group of artist and artisans, passionate professionals and avid amateurs. Join today and add your name to the growing list of potters and ceramic artists who are proud to count themselves among the membership of the Potters Council

A nurturing, creative community
The Potters Council was formed to create a community of potters and ceramic artists from around the world. This is a community of potters dedicated to supporting each other by sharing ideas, insights, and advice. Community is important. We can all share techniques and tips and add new dimensions to each other’s works–and our own. You never know what will inspire your work or influence your next project. But that’s part of the joy of pottery! And when you become a member of the Potters Council, you’re part of a creative, compassionate community of people who understand you.

Connected to the clay
Potters Council is a nonprofit subsidiary of The American Ceramic Society (ACerS). It was formed to serve you: potters, ceramic artists, lovers of clay. Our mission is to meet the needs of studio potters and ceramic artists by providing a place for knowledge exchange and professional enhancement.

Our goals are simple:

  • Support studio pottery as a professional and recreational activity by providing valuable programs and services.
  • Provide forums for discussion of issues, and a means to address them.
  • Tap into The American Ceramic Society’s wealth of technical knowledge in ceramics.
  • Organize groups on local, regional, national, and international levels–working closely with and supporting existing arts organizations.
  • Provide business and career opportunities.
  • Support the efforts of ACerS to promote ceramic awareness.
