What a wonderful place! My son had noticed the shop from across the street. He loves to sculpt! The ladies were so nice to him. They invited us inside and gave my husband and I a tour of their shop. We enjoyed ourselves! We definitely recommend this lovely shop!!

The staff was super nice and helpful! I think the clay selection is better than the one in South Seattle, and it seems like better quality too. Definitely recommend!

Went out of my way to come here instead of SPS, as I needed a few raw materials for mixing glazes and they were almost half the price here. I scoped their website extensively before making the trip to make sure they had everything I needed in stock, and based on the way each item had a drop down menu of quantities, I assumed it was the same deal as SPS where it's all pre-bagged for you to grab and go. The place is pretty small inside and when I came in and browsed, the stuff on the shelves was mostly just glazes and various tools. When I asked one of the sales associates where the raw materials where, she informed me (with a tinge of annoyance in her tone) they were in the back and I would need tell her what I wanted to be weighed out. After I listed out my items, which was 9 common materials in totally reasonable quantities (only 1 lb and 5 lbs), I was informed rather passive-aggressively to hang out b/c it would take a while and that people usually call in advance with that kind of order. I assumed "a while" meant like 20 minutes max since I was told to wait around, but this took a LITERAL HOUR, and she somehow forgot one of the items, so I had to wait even longer for someone else to go grab that. I'm sure they have a lot of stuff back there, but an hour seemed a bit excessive to me... If I had known it would take that long I would have left and came back. It seems like waiting for things in the back is the norm here b/c two other customers were also in there wandering aimlessly while waiting.I really want to like this place since the pricing and selection is so much better than SPS and the woman who checked me out (potentially the owner, I'm not sure, but she had short hair and glasses) was so incredibly kind and lovely, but I really wish there was some better method of getting items. I'm begging y'all to please either put some better info on your website about ordering ahead, or have some more commonly bought materials pre-weighed, so people like me who are used to SPS and make the drive out know what to expect and aren't left waiting around for an hour and made to feel guilty by your employees for asking for items to be weighed out. I hate inconveniencing people and would've happily called ahead if I had known I was supposed to!

Huge shout out to Quinn. Called in for help with my new glazes I just had delivered. He went above and beyond with explanation and made it easy to understand coming from his level of experience and speaking to someone new to very detailed glaze info. Thanks!

Quinn and the team at clay art center have been integral in helping our school restart their ceramics program. Their guidance and generosity is really helping inspire the new age of ceramicists and planting the seed while they are still young is vital to growing a genuine love for the art!

Living close to here is dangerous for my pockets!The store is filled with everything you'd need for your ceramic journey. Do call ahead to make sure the clay you want is in stock. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful and the cute, friendly pups are a plus.

I have found Emailing them ahead to make sure the base (usually clay) is bought and waiting is the best way to go. I can normally keep damage under control that way as Its a warehouse full of ceramic and some glass everything. Kilns included.

What a great establishment and fantastic staff!!My wife and I are just getting started in ceramics. We went to this store to ask questions, learn, and explore. We were greeted as soon as we walked in by a very nice employee. She listened to what we were there for and answered all of our questions. She had a wealth of information and advice, but explained everything with the perfect level of detail so as not to be overwhelming. They carry a really broad selection of everything you would need for ceramics from brushes to kilns and everything in between. I'd say a good 50% of their floor space is dedicated to glazes and samples. SO many to choose from! From comparisons that I've done across a wide range of items, their pricing is very competitive as well. During our visit, we came into contact with 3-4 employees and everyone was very welcoming, knowlegable, and very helpful. An amazing staff all the way around!Overall, fantastic experience! This is now our go-to store for everything related to ceramics! Highly recommended!
