Located in the Marigny neighborhood of New Orleans since 2010, Byrdie's is a place for the community to explore clay arts. We offer classes in addition to providing a space for members to create and sell pottery. We offer classes for those who are interested in learning about wheel throwing or handbuilding.
Classes are usually 2-3 hours a week for 3-6 weeks. As of 2021, we are holding space in each class for a BIPOC through a Class Fellowship. You can learn more about the Class Fellowship and current class offerings on the Classes pages. Our community is a vibrant one with members ranging from hobbyists to working artists and everything in between.
