I first joined WHC as a student for a slab-building class. After my 2nd class, I already knew that I wanted to become a member thereafter. They have great instructors who care about their students, and Alden and Leslie have built an inclusive and welcoming community of artists. I love being a member of this studio and would recommend to anyone interested in ceramics!

Wheelhouse is so much more than a clay studio! It’s a community for the creatively curious and curiously creative. I started with a Clay Play session shortly after Wheelhouse opened and could not get enough! Four classes with amazingly talented, patient, friendly, and deeply knowledgeable teachers later, I joined the studio as a member. The feel, the smell, the beauty of clay lodges deep into your soul at Wheelhouse. I find myself in this wonderful space basking deep in the flow, making friends, working through puzzles and personal challenges, laughing about all sorts of things, eating Hi-Chews and other treats, sharing lessons and techniques learned, and getting lost in conversation. Wheelhouse is a haven and a home and so much fun to boot.

I took a handbuilding class at wheelhouse and I’m now hooked on clay. I love the staff, members, classes/workshops, the SUPER CLEAN studio, and all the amazing glazes, clay, tools the studio offers. I’m a member now and love the community WHC has built. It’s nice to have a space to wind down when life is a bit stressful, and also a place to laugh and talk about random things to creative projects at the studio.

I started with a Clay Play then followed up with two six-week classes. Wheelhouse is supportive community of generous and compassionate people. There are many good studios in San Francisco, and Wheelhouse is where I chose to become a member.

Wheelhouse is awesome, I have taken four classes with the studio and have been a member for a couple years now. The owner and teachers are incredibly intentional in how the studio is setup and run. It is a space where if you show up and be respectful, you will in turn get to learn from the amazing members and grow with your fellow students! I cannot recommend enough 💖
