Who We Are
In 2011, a small group of potters looking for a place to create, rented a space on Sullivan Street in Madison, AL. Fast forward to 2023, those same potters now occupy an 8000 square foot community studio in Huntsville, AL that supports potters at all stages of their journey!
Our studio is full of people who support, encourage, and share their ideas and knowledge with one another. Please stop by or get in touch today and see what we’re all about. We are the oldest and largest community pottery studio in North Alabama and we offer pottery classes, workshops, memberships, supplies and more.
Come Take Us for a Spin!

During inclement weather we will follow the schedule of Huntsville City Schools or Redstone Arsenal. If either of these close due to weather, Sullivan Pottery will also be closed. Any classes that are scheduled will be postponed and will meet at their next regularly scheduled time. The missed class(es) will be rescheduled, primarily by adding another week onto the class session.
