WHO WE ARE


ABOUT US
​OUR IDENTITY
Pottery Tree Studio is a creativity haven, founded by Celeste, a passionate and experienced potter. She has had a lifelong desire to teach and now, with her four special needs children grown, she's able to bring together her love of pottery with her desire to share it with others. The studio offers weekly classes and workshops, encouraging experimentation with all aspects of clay. This includes wheel throwing, hand building, molds, and slab work. With the forgiving process of pottery— "If you mess up, you just put a new piece of clay on the wheel and try again”.

ABOUT US
OUR WORK PHILOSOPHY
Celeste takes an individualized approach to teaching students how to work with clay on the pottery wheel.
To accomplish this all classes stay under 4 students. During weekly sessions, she takes the time to learn each student's unique throwing style, helping them adapt to the new world of working with their hands to create beautiful pieces. By customizing, troubleshooting, and working with each student's individual style, it becomes a more natural process and a greater reward for them. She believes each student thinks differently and processes differently, and their bodies and hands are shaped for their uniqueness. This means that the approach to working on the wheel should be tailored to what works for them.
