Common space, i.e. ceramic coworking

Ceramic coworking is an idea that has been very close to our hearts since the very beginning of Zakwas. We know how difficult it is to find your own, fully equipped studio, so we decided to open up part of our space for shared pottery use.

We welcome both experienced and beginners. All you need is a love of ceramics and a desire to develop it. We're happy to share our knowledge and exchange insights.

Joining our coworking space includes subscription-based access to the studio and participation in ceramic firing sessions.
