ABOUT US

OUR MISSION

ClayHouston exists to cultivate, promote, and advance the ceramic arts in the Houston Metropolitan area and beyond. We work to provide our members with opportunities through education, professional development, exhibitions, workshops, and programs while partnering with local arts organizations to further our reach. Additionally, we create recreational programs as an opportunity for our members to socialize, build community and learn from one another in a casual atmosphere. ClayHouston was founded in 2004 and is a volunteer-run 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

OUR EQUITY & INCLUSION STATEMENT

Working to bridge the gap between clay and under-represented communities in Houston while naming and co-creating opportunities within our organization and alongside city partners to provide inclusive programing and engagement, regardless of religion, race, gender, sexual orientation or ability.

Every year, ClayHouston awards money to ceramic artists in Texas who self-identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color. Learn more about our BIPOC Award here.
