A new future is taking shape. Our new building, located in South Kensington, is now under construction. Thanks to your generous support, we successfully raised the funds needed to break ground in January, and despite delays due to the pandemic, the foundations are now poured and we’re on target to finish construction in September 2021. We couldn’t be prouder of this shared accomplishment.

As we begin this new chapter in our own history, the idea of ‘place’ takes on critical importance. Building a resonant conversation between clay artists and the commiunity in our new gallery, Making Place Matter will be organized around the complex meanings of place in our contemporary social conversation.
