The Rotorua Potters Group is a community-driven club based in Studio 3 at The Arts Village, Rotorua. Our well-equipped studio features three kilns and offers pottery classes for all levels. We host annual and special exhibitions, organise events that bring the joy of clay to the wider community, and also invite touring potters to run workshops. Governed by a passionate team of volunteers and pottery enthusiasts, we’re dedicated to fostering creativity and connection through the art of pottery.

The Arts Village

We are very lucky to have a permanent home here in Rotorua, supported by The Arts Village, a vibrant community hub dedicated to providing art-based opportunities. Our presence here wouldn't be possible without the ongoing day-to-day support from The Arts Village facilities and their wonderful team, for which we are deeply grateful.

If you’re popping in to see our studio, take a moment to have a look around the village, a home to a large number of arts and cultural groups who meet regularly. In addition, they have a co-op-run shop that sells a variety of locally made arts and crafts and an independently run café onsite. The Arts Village also has three art galleries that have new and exciting art exhibitions on display throughout the year.

The Arts Village Open Hours:

Tuesday to Friday 9 am to 3.30 pm
Saturdays 10 am to 2 pm
Closed Mondays, Sundays, & Public Holidays.
