Our Story

WNY’s Premier Pottery Classes, Pottery Studio & Clay Supplies.
Located minutes from Buffalo NY
Established in 1999 by Thomas Hooper
Our studio specializes in teaching wheel-thrown pottery and offers instruction for all levels of experience. Classes are informal and are kept small to guarantee a wheel for every student.

Artyard Studio has been providing a place where you and your children can explore many aspects of art and the creative process. We offer a variety of classes from which you may select. The studio is located just minutes from Buffalo, N.Y., on an historic property in the Village of Williamsville. The building, a turn of the century machine shop,📷 was transformed nearly a century later into the private production studio of Thom Hooper, and into Artyard Studio classrooms. The circa 1861 home at the front of the property houses Thom’s wife’s shop, The Village Nail Boutique & Gifts, where his Bison Pottery and other handcrafted items are available. Along with Classes, Camps, and Special Workshops we have Pottery Gifts, and Studio Supplies available for all WNY Potters and enthusiasts. Also

Home of www.BuffaloNYpottery.com Buffalo themed stoneware serving and entertaining wares for you and your guests who LOVE Buffalo.

Imagine a place… that blends artist studio, a week at camp, and maybe a dash of encounter group and you’ll get a sense of the Artyard Studio Pottery experience. For many long-time students, Artyard Studio Pottery is their personal clay studio — a place to enjoy the clay, meet interesting people and observe the miracle of turning mud into functional objects.
