About Us
Blossom Hill Crafts is a ceramics studio and clay learning community located in Los Gatos, California, just 15 minutes from downtown San Jose. Tens of thousands of people have learned how to do pottery at Blossom Hill Crafts over the past 50 years. Many have started here as students and gone on to become professional potters.
Our studio offers a welcoming space for every level of potter. We have beginning classes and a large community of talented and knowledgeable artists who love to share their expertise. Our studio space also has plenty to offer experienced ceramicists looking to hone their craft and create beautiful artwork. We are fully equipped with 24 potters wheels, three 40 cubic foot gas kilns, two electric kilns, a raku kiln, two slab rollers, and much more. We are constantly evolving and updating, including most recently renovating our space and significantly expanding the handbuilding room.
In May 2021, we opened our BHC retail store featuring beautiful artwork crafted by more than 25 of our members and staff. (Click here to learn more...)

Classes
Beginner Classes
We are now offering wheel throwing and handbuilding classes for beginning potters. Our Beginner Classes are in small groups of up to 4 students and 1 instructor, ensuring that all of our students get the support they need to be successful.
Ongoing Classes for Experienced Potters
While our beginner classes offer a great opportunity for new and mostly new potters to get started with clay, our ongoing classes are for more experienced potters who want to have the benefits of a teacher's support every week along with all of the perks of a studio membership.
Workshops
In addition to our regularly scheduled classes, we have periodic specialty workshops, which are open to the public and available for our members at a significant discount.
