memberships
We have a variety of membership options whether you are taking the leap from classes to becoming a serious hobbyist or you are looking to work towards becoming an emerging professional ceramicist.
We have a wait list for spaces on our, Emerging potter, In production, and Incubator potter membership tiers. Please submit an application. Once we have your application we can add you to the waitlist for your chosen membership
ECW is not for beginners. You need to have experience at least our Foundation Level 3 classes, either with us or with another studio. This equates to 60 - 100 hours of dedicated practice. You will need to show us a folio of recent work too, so we can see your level of practice. If you haven't practiced for a while, we recommend taking a course to refresh your skills.
Our classes are taught in our teaching studio at EdinburghDesignSchool. Our teaching school is a centre of excellence for ceramics and an SQA approved teaching centre.
Please make folio sites access open for us to see when you send us links.

Julija Pustovrh is a Slovenian born artist, living and working in Edinburgh. After finishing her master's degree in Landscape Architecture at Edinburgh College of Art in 2014 she launched her own design business focusing on ceramics. Her work is inspired by nature, looking at forms, structures, textures and patterns in micro and macro scales, transformations in time and space.
Currently Julija is working on an ongoing project exploring the connection between Scottish landscapes and coastal features. She has been collecting sand from remote coasts of Scotland and is incorporating the sands in her new body of work - SANDSCAPES 2019/20.
