Mudworks Ceramics Studio - El Cerrito, California

Caitlin Higginbotham

I took a class, total newbie. Kind of a frustrating experience. Other students in beginner pottery wheel class had experience. Teacher was lovely but at one point admitted that she prefers teaching advanced/intermediate students. She is a great ceramist.
Most frustrating part was trying to complete and get my pieces. The situation with the firing times are not clear and definitely not convenient. Lost about a third of my pieces. Would have loved an easier way to find pieces after completion. And an ear to take constructive feedback.
In case you want to take a class - sit near teacher, take photos of your pieces, make something that can easily be found.

What a welcoming and creative space! The class I took was 6 weeks and I learned so much! I'm a newbie and the teacher was so patient and offered such helpful and judgement free instruction. Highly recommend a class here

Finishing up my first ceramics class on Monday's with Marie. What a great space to start a new hobby with great resources. I had a lot of trouble trying to book classes at other studios, but really glad there were openings here. Can't recommend enough, this place is great.

Mudworks pottery is a wonderful creative space and community! The studio is organized and well supplied with tools and glazes.
I took a class last January with Lynne Meade who is an amazing teacher and artist. I would recommend Mudworks to anyone interested in getting into ceramics.
