Welcome to the DAP Pottery Studio

At the DAP Pottery Studio clay is our passion. Whether novice or experienced, our comprehensive selection of offerings ensures there is something for everyone.

Located in the lower level of the Downtown Art Place, our Pottery Studio offers 1,000 sq. ft. dedicated to ceramics. We offer six pottery wheels, two electric kilns, plenty 

of storage, and a classroom area.

No matter your skill level, you can partake in and benefit from our diverse pottery classes. Our class sizes are small to ensure one-on-one instruction. Never thrown on a wheel before? - try a pottery class. Experienced and want to expand your pottery ability? - book studio time and use our facilities.

The DAP Pottery Studio's mission is to encourage creativity and an understanding of quality handcrafted art through its pottery classes. 

Take one and experience the clay between your fingers.

Pottery classes are taught by Karis Kampfer and Candace Jacobs.

The DAP is supported in part by awards from the

MICHIGAN COUNCIL

FOR ARTS AND CULTURAL AFFAIRS

and the

NATIONAL ENDOWMENT 

FOR THE ARTS.
