Since 1980 Baltimore Clayworks has provided Baltimore residents of all ages with high quality ceramics and pottery arts classes. Part of Clayworks’ mission involves developing collaborations with community organizations like Jubilee Arts in order to provide underserved children and adults in inner-city Baltimore with enriching and sustained arts activities intended to impart both artistic and life skills.
By partnering with Jubilee Arts, Baltimore Clayworks provides teachers, materials, and programming expertise to the Sandtown-Winchester, Upton and surrounding communities that results in first-rate arts classes for community residents.
