Azure Arts

Pottery wheels spin at Azure Arts, a working studio in Richfield Springs, in northern Otsego County, where handcrafted porcelain pieces are made. Beyond making its own work, the studio teaches, with wheel-throwing classes and workshops for people trying a new craft or looking for a creative hobby.

Guests can reserve a workshop with friends, book a lesson for the family, mark a special occasion or sign up for a private class. Hand-building in clay is an option too, for anyone who would rather skip the wheel. The studio is about 20 minutes from Cooperstown.
