Cabbagetown Clay and Glass Works

Our mission is to provide a safe, congenial work space & gallery for artists, to provide educational facilities for people to learn the craft of pottery, and to provide a retail space for buying local, handcrafted pieces of art where the patron can meet and see the artists working.

What sets us apart from other ceramic organizations? We are not trying to make a profit. ACW is a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation, any contribution made is tax deductible. Your generous support allows this group of local artists to continue their craft and to provide classes to the community.

Atlanta Clay Works began originally in the heart of Cabbagetown, an area on the east side of Atlanta known for its eclectic art community since the 1980’s. Cabbagetown Clay and Glass Works first opened its doors in 2002 on Powell Street and later moved to Woodward Avenue. Founded by a group of starving artists who were displaced when another studio had to close, a collaborative organization was the best option as space and equipment could be owned and shared by its artists. Now in its third incarnation with a new name, we are on to bigger and better things with a newly renovated studio and walkable neighborhood with restaurants, coffee shops, and galleries. In 2026 we celebrate our 10th year in Kirkwood, being a proud member of the Kirkwood Business Owners Association.
