Join East Dorset Potters

East Dorset Potters welcomes all active potters/ceramicists living or working in the BH postcode area. Whether you’re a full-time or part-time maker, just discovering clay, or have years of experience, we’d love to have you in our community.

Why Join Us

Becoming a member gives you access to a supportive network of local makers and a range of creative opportunities, including:

• Your own artist page on the EDP website - featuring your artist statement, images of your work, profile photo, and links to your website or social media.

• Monthly meet-ups where you can connect with other potters and ceramicists.

• A monthly newsletter sharing member news, upcoming events, and creative opportunities.

• Collaborative opportunities to share resources, learning, and group exhibitions.

What We Ask of Members

East Dorset Potters is a volunteer-run group. We ask that all members actively contribute in some way - whether by helping with events, sharing skills, or supporting group projects. Prospective members will be asked to outline how they can get involved.

New members are welcomed twice a year, in April and October. If you’d like to join our community or find out more, please get in touch — we’d love to hear from you!
