Top 5 Pottery studios in Johannesburg  


You don't have to be an expert when it comes to pottery , part of the creative process is the deeply creative and personal aspect of being able to tap into what we have in our "unconscious creative-selves".  Pottery helps you forget the outside world for a while, as you concentrate on the clay and let  intuitive responses manage your artistic expression.

#3. Liebermann Pottery
Pottery detective, Adriaan Turgel, Sammy’s nephew, scours the Far East for fabulous super-sized rustic, antique, and contemporary urns, planters, fish ponds, rare porcelain and traditional ceramics.
For the Bonsai enthusiast, the Liebermann Gallery has the largest selection of planters on the continent. Intrepid bargain hunters will find seconds at half-price in the courtyard. An exciting array of Southern African potters and ceramic artists, both rural and urban, including Lisa Liebermann, are showcased at Liebermann Gallery. The Gallery is located in the historic Gas Works, close to the trendy Melville shopping area. Our Cape Town gallery also has a great bonsai range. It's situated on an old Cape farm, on Kommetjie Main Road, near Kommetjie on the Cape Peninsula.


#4. Kim Sacks School of Ceramics
Having worked with clay for more than 40 years, I feel very strongly that there are many components that contribute to a  highly personal, and passionate, working relationship with clay. It is obviously learning the "Craft of Clay" – the techniques which enable us to reach our goals in terms of what we want to create.
There is also another  part of the creative process – the deeply creative and personal aspect of being able to tap into what we have in our "unconscious creative-selves" that I deem to be very significant. To be able to tap into those innate gifts of creativity that we each have, to find a positive, and satisfying path with clay in this sense, has huge and equal importance for me. I hold part time classes, in the mornings and occasionally I also run– week-end workshops and special “Clay-Journeys”. I teach adults and children. I also cater for people with disabilities.


#5. Brooks art and pottery studio
Situated in Dunvegan, a quiet suburb of Edenvale, our Ceramic Studio has been offering classes for 30 years.
We offer both morning and evening classes, seven times a week, catering for adults and children from the age of 10, teaching both hand and wheelwork, earthenware and stoneware.
We find running informal classes leads to satisfaction amongst the students - some are daring and different, but, each student has a contribution to make in inspiring and stimulating the people around them.
