Membership

The Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild is all about community. Our mission is to provide a nurturing, creative environment where local potters can learn and grow in their craft.

Guild membership is open to anyone, age 16 or over, with an interest in ceramic arts. (There may be additional requirements to participate in some Guild events which we co-host with other organizations.)

We welcome professional and hobbyist potters, as well as those who are simply interested in developing an appreciation for the ceramic arts.
