Our Project

Our plan is to make Salemi a recognised centre for contemporary ceramic art. Many small towns and villages across Europe are being left behind by locals in search of 'opportunities' and Salemi is part of that trend. But, the potential to re-energise this beautiful, historic town is clear. A community of artists will add the new 'life' it needs, 'wake up' the local economy and inspire possibilities for young people. Among Salemi's narrow stone streets and medieval buildings, overlooking miles of olive groves and vineyards, you'll feel it too!

Our Teachers

Our studio hosts a rotating lineup of established ceramics artists from across Europe, each bringing their own distinct style, background, and expertise.

Throughout the year, they lead one or multiple short-term intensive courses - a week or two long - offering you the chance to dive into specific techniques.

We have teachers specialized in wheel throwing, hand building, sgraffito, and other decoration techniques, glazes, and experimental processes.
