    We run a globally loved, contemporary ceramic studio located on a peaceful farm in Chandigarh, India. We host pottery retreats and workshops for guests from around the world, throughout the year, and are looking for experienced ceramic artists or instructors to join us as studio assistants and teachers.

    We offer a serene and creative space for those passionate about ceramics and teaching.
