We are a ceramics and pottery studio located in Tacoma, WA. The studio opened in March 2025 headed by Lucy Nilan, a Washington transplant and avid lover of clay.

We are a ceramics teaching studio that also offers drop-in hours, firing services, and tiered memberships.

Spaces are available with 24-hour access for private rental members.

Classes are available for all ages and skill levels.

Private lessons, events, and one-time experiences can be booked when available.

Our resident artists, members, students, and the community are important to us. Our goal is to help foster creativity and togetherness in a relaxed and supportive community.

Do you have a stressful job and clay is your way to decompress or relax? We love that! We want to enjoy that with you.

Do you have a passion for clay and want to turn it into a hobby, side hustle, work with galleries, or make it a full-time career? Join us so we can be that little spark beside you, encouraging you.

This is a space where all people can come together and create beautiful objects out of clay regardless of their goals.

Welcome to Tacoma Clay!
