🌿 We're closed for summer break from 7/29 - 8/27 🌿
To help keep our space safe, masks (N95 or KN95) are required for all workshops. Please bring your own—extras are available at the studio. Masks protect against airborne illness as well as clay and glaze dust.
Our property is ADA accessible, with a ramp available for the bathroom (3 steps). On-site parking and other accommodations are available—email us with any needs: info@sooki.studio.
Our sliding scale is a tool for social equity, designed to make ceramics education accessible. Please choose the tier that fits your financial situation—this trust-based system helps us support more people.
The higher tiers reflect the full cost and subsidize lower tiers. Limited spots are available at each level. We also offer interest-free payment plans.
Questions or suggestions? We’d love to hear from you.
Workshops are non-refundable, but you may transfer your spot to someone else—just let us know in advance.
Students receive open studio access during their workshop, Thursday–Monday from 11am to 8pm, plus a 10% discount at Sooki Supply.
Sooki Studio is happy to announce that we are now offering private group workshops. Do you have a group of friends, colleagues or family members you want to have fun with while doing something creative? This one-day workshop is a playful low stakes learning environment grounded in exploration and letting go of expectations.
Participants can choose between learning pinch pots, coil building or slab building depending on the duration of the workshop. With these techniques you can essentially build anything. Workshops can be geared towards other techniques when specially requested. Groups can choose between clays and glaze colors upon arrival.
No experience is necessary, this workshop will be suited to those who are curious in working with clay for the first time and those with various levels of experience who would like to create in a communal space.
The workshop takes place at Sooki Studio located in Los Angeles, 15 minutes east of Downtown. During the workshop participants can relax, creatively express themselves, and bond with one another. All pieces will be glazed, fired and ready for pick up within 3-weeks of the workshop.
Materials and firing are included and participants can build as many pieces as they'd like within the workshop. A suggested list of everyday items that can be used as tools will be sent to registered participants prior to the commencement of the workshop.
Once your session is booked we will contact you to arrange a date and time. Workshops can take place on the weekends or on weekdays depending on availability. We will work together to find a time that works for all parties.
