Harbour Clay Rooms

A shared ceramics studio by the Eastern Docklands

Membership, courses, and workshops — room to throw, handbuild, and fire without the hassle of a private kiln.

Welcome

Your ceramics makerspace in Amsterdam

Harbour Clay Rooms is a professional workspace where anyone can work with clay. Use the studio flexibly as a member, or join a course or workshop — wheels, handbuilding tables, glazes, and firings included.

It’s a shared studio with the tools you need, so you can focus on making. Wheel, handbuilding, sculpting, or slipcasting — in a calm harbour-side atmosphere with a community of potters and clay enthusiasts.
