2026 Fall Clay Crawl


A Seattle-Wide celebration of community clay studios

Saturday, October 3rd, 2026 (North Seattle studios) &
Saturday, October 10th, 2026 (South Seattle studios - This is US!)

The Clay Crawl is sponsored by the Washington Clay Arts Association (WCA), a statewide organization that promotes clay arts and supports ceramic artists. Studios throughout South Seattle will participate in a day of demonstrations, sales, and community engagement, offering the public a chance to explore and support local ceramic artists.

The participation fee supports studio organization, access to shared facilities (including bathrooms), use of a beautiful and well-maintained exhibition space, and event-wide promotion coordinated by RCC, RCS, and WCA.
