What does your organization do?
We bring the ceramic arts to life in our community. The Guild owns and manages a complete pottery making facility in Boulder Colorado for use by its members. The Guild also offers classes to the public where we share our passion and skill with those wanting to learn ceramics.
We partner with local agencies for fundraisers, opportunities to show work, share experiences in clay with underserved populations, and host exhibitions open to the public. -
If I were to donate funds, how is my money used?
The Guild is primarily funded by an affordable monthly membership fee. Donated funds are used to support our facilities, our class and workshop offerings, and scholarships. As a 501c3 arts non-profit, with additonal funds we can offer additional programing to a variety of populations in our community.

Yes! We accept online applications. Our membership chair will respond to you. Often there is a wait list for membership. A jury committee will consider your application.
