Studio Membership
Your space to make, explore, and belong
If you’ve ever wished for a place where you can just turn up, roll up your sleeves, and dive straight into clay – without having to clear the kitchen table first – my Cambridgeshire studio is here for you.
Studio membership is for people who’ve already had some experience with clay and want the freedom to work on their own projects, with expert support when you need it, and a friendly creative community alongside you.
You’ll have access to everything you need: big purpose-built work tables, a rainbow of over 140 brush-on glazes, stoneware clays, an extruder, small slab roller, and more tools than you can count. And if you ever get stuck or want to try something new, I’m here to guide you.
Membership is as much about the people as the making. Some days the studio is peaceful and focused; other days it’s full of chatter, laughter, and shared inspiration. Either way, you’ll be part of a warm, supportive group who celebrate each other’s wins, share ideas freely, and see mistakes as just another step in the creative process.
Hetti, my one-eyed French Bulldog, is an occasional visitor – and a firm believer in taking regular tea breaks. The kettle’s always on, and there’s a small kitchen if you want to bring lunch or snacks.
Your membership includes:
- Weekly studio time (choose 2 or 4 hours) for 45 weeks of the year
- All materials and kiln firing
- Access to my full library of glazes, tools, and equipment
- Office hours access to me for questions and advice
- Monthly technique videos and a library of hand-building tutorials
It’s relaxed, flexible, and designed to fit around your life. You decide what you make and how you spend your time – I just make sure you have the space, tools, and support to make it happen.
If you’re a beginner, the best place to start is my Beginners Hand Building Course before joining as a member. And if you’re not local, you can still be part of the clay community with my Online Membership.

A members view
“I have been going to ceramic sessions with Paula for 2 years. I love the idea of monthly or annual membership. It is very flexible and works extremely well with other commitments. You simply choose which session you want to attend each week.
Paula is always happy to give help, advice and guidance or demonstrate a technique if necessary. Members are free to develop their own way of working and Paula is always encouraging. The studio is full of all the tools and equipment you will ever need to produce whatever project you are inspired to work on.
I love my weekly 2 hour sessions, to switch off from everything and just concentrate on my current project – very therapeutic, satisfying and relaxing.”
