Jane is a fantastic teacher and is always available to lend a hand when the clay goes astray. The slow wheel classes are great no matter what level, highly recommend taking part. read more

From the Business

Specialties

Slow Clay Centre is a beautifully designed ceramics and pottery studio in inner-city Melbourne that opened in 2012. It has grown from ceramic artist Jane Sawyer's popular studio pottery classes specializing in Japanese techniques. The new venue, in Collingwood is large enough for friends and other professional ceramic artists to join Jane and together they offer a wide range of exciting pottery classes and guest artist workshops and forums. Please visit the tutors page to learn about our experience and the timetable page to search for pottery classes or just register your interest and subscribe to our newsletter. We hope you will join us at Slow Clay Centre sometime and experience our passion for and addiction to clay!

Meet the Business Owner: Jane S.

Jane is the director of Slow Clay Centre and has practiced as a ceramic artist and teacher for nearly thirty years. Her initial training as an art teacher led to further specialist training as an apprentice to Andrew Halford in Australia and to Shussai-gama in Japan. She also holds an MA by Research in Fine Art (Ceramics). Janes ceramic practice has taken her around the world, including exhibitions and residencies in UK, Denmark and Japan and representing Australia in Collect at the V&A in London. Jane is as equally known for her tactile, expressive ceramics as she is for her unique teaching methods. She has developed a specific way of teaching wheel throwing based on Japanese techniques and ergonomic best practice. It is a natural synthesis of her experiences in East and West, mind and body. Slow Clay Centre was established as a response to the overwhelming demand for Janes studio classes and is her way to bring it all together with friends. www.janesawyer.com.au

I like to call it a 'hug mug' - it has to be the perfect circumference, texture, colour and height. Not an easy mission. I found an abundance of spirit mugs here! Melbourne is creative and proud of it - and this quaint ceramics shop celebrates local makers by exclusively selling Victorian goods. And good they are! Incredible actually. I fell in love with so many pieces that I bought 10 of them that I am prepared to cart home back to Perth. Turbulence, please be kind to my new ceramic friends. Located in North Melbourne, they also offer beginners workshops and community drop in days. Next door is a sunny cafe called Beatrix that looked to be brimming with delicious homemade cakes. Take one home as a perfect accompaniment for your first cup of tea in your spirit mug discovery.
