Hi, I’m Catie—founder of Catie Curry Ceramics, a Brooklyn-based studio where I create one-of-a-kind, slab-built pottery and offer classes for anyone to unwind, explore, and craft their own unique pieces. Whether you're a total beginner or a seasoned artist, my studio is a welcoming space to relax, have fun, and connect through creativity.
With a background in architecture and interior design, I first turned to ceramics as a way to disconnect from the daily chaos and constant screen time. I found joy in building detailed, geometric forms—works that reflect both structure and sentiment. Over time, that personal practice grew into something more: a space to share the therapeutic and expressive power of pottery with others.
My most popular creations are ceramic matchboxes, inspired by nostalgic dinners at restaurants that handed out matchbooks—a small object with big memories. That idea—turning everyday moments into lasting keepsakes—is what drives my work and what I hope to share through my classes.
As a lifelong New Yorker, the city’s energy and spirit show up in much of what I make. I've been fortunate to have sold-out shows in NYC and exhibit in London, but one of the things I love most is teaching paint-your-own pottery classes. It’s a chance to slow down, tap into your creativity, and walk away with something meaningful.
