Belfast Ceramics Studio has been founded by myself, Helen Faulkner, a potter for over 15 years. It has been something I have wanted to open for a long time, alongside making tableware that I sell in shops across the UK and Ireland, props for film work as well as the occasional market I have always taught pottery classes, whether it's throwing at festivals or hand-building classes in art centres.

 

Last year the opportunity came to open a teaching studio when the space next to my current workshop became available. I signed the contract on 1st June 2023, our first class was on 1st July and members started 1st September.

​

I want the space to be an open and inviting environment for makers of all levels who want to share their passion for clay and learn more about their craft.

The studio is in an old textiles mill in east Belfast, it is next door to my own studio. It has huge big windows that fill the space with natural light.
