Why Kinship is Denver’s best members-only pottery studio

Members only

There’s always a wheel open, and your pieces hit the kiln without waiting behind a class.

New

One-price membership

$295 a month covers clay, glaze and firings. Try the new glaze, throw ten versions, and stop worrying about what each piece costs.

Your own private pottery trainer

A free private lesson every 3 months of membership. Like personal training for clay.

New

Women and artist owned

Built by two working potters, for potters. Everything sits right where you’d reach for it, so the studio just feels easy to work in.

Room for every level

Some members are a group class in, some are twenty years in. Everyone’s here for the same reason.

A space you’ll lose hours in

Wheels face the wall, the music’s good and the light is warm. Throwing turns meditative, and you’ll stay longer than you planned.

I drive close to an hour to get here, each way… This place is more than worth the drive.

Switching studios?

Bring your tools and your half-finished ideas. Your tour shows you where everything lives. Start throwing that same week, or set your start date up to a few weeks out so you can wrap things up at your old studio first.

Brand new to clay?

We no longer offer classes, so start with an intro class somewhere in Denver, fall in love, then come find us. We’ll save you a wheel.
