About Claya

Come make in RiNo

Come make in RiNo. Claya is a big, bright pottery studio in Denver’s RiNo Arts District, surrounded by murals and open to everyone. Classes, membership, and a shelf with your name on it when you’re ready.

Walk in curious. Stay for the people around the wheel, the glaze table chatter, and the quiet focus that shows up once clay is spinning. We’re built for beginners and for folks who already know their way around a bat: same space, same welcome.
