Pottery NYC

The Smallest, Most Affordable Wheel Space in Manhattan.

We are Pottery NYC. At only about 100 square feet, we might possibly be the world’s smallest pottery studio, and we are definitely the most narrow! We are a dedicated wheel space for people to come, escape the city chaos, and create a pot.

Experience real pottery wheel throwing. No experience needed. One fired piece is always included.

Our Manifesto: Real Pottery, No Pretension

Let’s be real—New York City pottery classes can be wildly overpriced. We are actively fighting that. Our mission is to make clay accessible to absolutely everyone, which is why all of our public classes are intentionally designed to be the most affordable in the city.

How do we keep our prices so low? We embrace a sardine-packed cozy, high-energy studio, stick to classic clear glazes, and use standard, no-frills equipment that gets the job done without the luxury price tag. We trade the fancy, minimalist spa vibes for a lively, bustling community space where the focus is entirely on the joy of creating. If you want a luxury lounge, we might not be it (Psst… Go to Zerimar Instead). But if you want to learn real wheel skills without breaking the bank? Welcome home.

Why Choose Us

  • Real Pottery, Real Skills: No shortcuts, just real wheel-throwing fundamentals.

  • Expert Instructors: Friendly coaching to help you center, open, and pull your clay (again and again).

  • Fastest Turnaround in NYC: All classes include one finished piece, clear-glazed, fired, and ready for pickup in just one week (works stored for a maximum of 14 days post firing).

  • A Note on Glazes: To maximize our cozy footprint, we don't have any colored glaze options here. For a massive palette of colors, please visit our pretentious sister studio Zerimar.
