Choplet Ceramic Studio: Professional Pottery Classes and Contemporary Ceramic Arts

Choplet Ceramic Studio is a multifaceted ceramic arts institution and gallery based in Brooklyn, New York. Founded by artist Nadeige Choplet in 2006, the studio has grown into a significant hub for the local and international ceramics community. With locations in Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Choplet Ceramic Studio offers a variety of educational programs, including adult intensive wheel throwing, handbuilding workshops, and specialized classes in mold making and Raku firing. The studio also provides programs for children and teenagers, such as after-school sessions and summer clay camps. Beyond education, Choplet Ceramic Studio serves as a professional resource for independent artists through studio memberships and rental services. Members gain access to high-quality facilities equipped with electric wheels, slab rollers, extruders, and a wide array of clay bodies and glazes. The studio is also home to the Williamsburg Ceramic Center, an appointment-only facility providing 24-hour access for seasoned potters. The on-site gallery at Choplet Ceramic Studio promotes contemporary ceramic art by hosting several exhibitions annually, featuring both functional and sculptural works by studio members and instructors. The studio’s philosophy focuses on nurturing individual expression and artistic growth within a non-competitive, supportive environment. By providing firing services, kiln rentals, and professional-grade supplies to the public, Choplet Ceramic Studio continues to empower artists and foster a deep appreciation for the art of clay.
