Your one stop for all your pottery and ceramic needs – Classes, Studio memberships, Pottery materials and equipment, and handmade pottery
Home
I always go to The Potter's Shop when I am looking for unique gifts for family and friends. We have several beautiful ceramic pieces throughout our own home that our guests are always complementing!
Working amongst all of the other artists in the shop is a creative, relaxing, and wonderful experience. I get to use my mind and hands to shape a mound of clay into functional and artistic pieces that I now display here at the shop.
So cool in so many ways. If you're looking for a Milwaukee area beginner's pottery class, this is the one you want.
Such a fun night out and I learned a lot! Didn't think I would be able to make pottery on a wheel, but the instructor was a great coach. Thanks!!

Our Potters
The following potters take residence at The Potter’s Shop.
Donna Krischan
I took the six-week introductory class at The Potter’s Shop. By the time the class was completed, I was hooked and realized that the medium provides unlimited possibilities!!
Julie Reed
After many years of working in the left brain world of technology, I was starved for a dose of right brain creativity. A day spent at a Waukesha art crawl, the chance notice of a “pottery classes”…
Mike Mcgilvra
It’s the most relaxing process to be able to take a ball of clay and make a functional piece of pottery. I am always learning new methods whether it’s throwing or applying new textures to the surface or applying new glazes.
Vince Muehlbauer
Growing up, I passed a lot of time out in the forests of Wisconsin. Trying to capture the feel and texture of those woods in my pottery is what I’m currently trying to achieve.
Jill Kowalkowski
Stained glass and pottery have been my favorites for a long time. I do love color! Experimenting with different methods of glaze application, along with adding texture with coils, stamps, or slip give me the varying results of my work.
Maggie Flanagan
Many of my pieces take inspiration from natural elements such as plants or animals. I’m an animal behavior major at Carroll University so I enjoy incorporating my real experiences with animals in my pottery.
Taylor McDarison
I am a multi-media and ceramics artist who’s work yearns to twist the viewpoint of reality through a window into the fantastical.
