Australian Ceramics Open Studios 2023 will be held Saturday 11 & Sunday 12 November

Australian Ceramics Open Studios (ACOS) is an annual, nationwide, weekend event that celebrates clay, community and creativity.

Hosted by The Australian Ceramics Association, ceramics studios around Australia open their doors to offer a peek into their making processes and sharing their work. Some studios host demonstrations, some pop on the kettle and all offer the chance to view works and/or purchase a handmade piece.

We would love you to join us and open your studio for our 12th national event.

In the spirit of 'the more the merrier' both members and non-members of The Australian Ceramics Association can register for Open Studios in 2023. We hope to see an abundance of open studios across the nation, enabling more pockets of openings in regional and non-major city areas, creating a ground swell of activity and new audiences.
