Our Journey:
Back in 2016, founder Kelly Campbell began Cardiff Pottery workshops initially as a LTD company in 2015 with a passion for making pottery accessible to everyone in Cardiff, initially starting the pottery with 10 rolling pins and 5 tables that she packed down after each session. Kelly changed the company to a CIC in 2016, she firmly believed that her main aim was to support the community and develop an environment where people and their practice can flourish. By 2024, she has along with her team transformed Cardiff Pottery Workshops into a space that supports the local community.
Inclusivity and Community Programs:
60+ Tea and Pottery:Engaging sessions for our senior community members, blending the joy of pottery with the comfort of tea.
Re Fire:These are subsidized pottery classes designed specifically for individuals dealing with depression, as a way to provide therapeutic relief through art.

Studio Manager James Lee and the entire team strive to maintain an atmosphere that’s as welcoming as it is creative, making almost everyone feel at home as soon as they walk through our doors.
