Incredible space with a diverse selection of ceramics by talented local artists and craftspeople. Lessons and drop-in were both great experiences. Beautiful selection of glazes and shinos. People in the studio are always friendly and happy to share knowledge

Friendly and a great community for potters of any level. The studio has a long waiting list to become a member; however, it's easy to sign up for drop-ins and classes.

What a neighborhood treasure! You can get lessons on clay making, make clay items in the studio and fire them in the kiln. You can be a newbie or a professional and use their services. If you appreciate clay items but want to keep you hands clean, you can visit the gallery and view + purchase artistic items made by professionals.
Ruby’s Clay Studio & Gallery has been in the heart of the Castro since 1967. Ruby’s offers a place for creativity and community, serving a range of studio users.
Ruby’s Clay Studio & Gallery keeps studio costs low by enlisting hundreds of hours of volunteer service and through careful financial planning. Artists working in clay are often dependent on sharing space and necessary equipment. Please consider helping us in continuing to keep Ruby’s Clay Studio & Gallery an arts center whose objectives are to promote community appreciation of the ceramic arts and to encourage self-expression and technical and artistic development through exhibitions, classes and the resources provided by a shared learning facility for many years to come.
