Founded in 1967, the Montgomery Potters is a clay club located in Montgomery County, Maryland. We are a diverse group of clay enthusiasts, and our membership consists of ceramic artists and potters with varying levels of experience and skill.  Our members are from parts of Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Washington and focus on all types of ceramic art and surface decoration techniques from wheel-thrown functional ware fired in a wood kiln to decorative sculptures fired in oxidation.

Since its inception, the Montgomery Potters have striven to build a community that brings clay artists together, shares knowledge and ideas, and fosters the spirit of friendship and creativity. Clay is the thread that ties our community together, and we support all processes and techniques for giving life to our chosen medium.
