Welcome all! 

The SWFL Potters Guild’s goal is to provide access to specialized tools and facilities necessary to explore the art of ceramics.

As a collective, the Guild is fostering an all-inclusive environment to empower artists by:

• Providing exposure to national and international artists through workshops and demonstrations
• Engaging qualified members to contribute as Studio instructors
• Welcoming resident potters to rent Studio space 24/7
• Offering member access to the Guild’s kilns and unique firing processes
• Supplying gallery shelves and art fair access to assist with selling member wares

As a member, you'll have your own Members' Photo Gallery on our website, to which you can directly upload photos of your work. You'll also have the ability to customize your profile by sharing as much or as little information about you as you would like.

Each year, Guild members will be able to participate in at least two Pottery Sales Events, and the Guild will be presenting workshops and/or demonstrations with preeminent potters from North America and abroad.

Members will also have the opportunity to exhibit their work for sale at the Guild Gallery in the Quidnau Hindman House (the Yellow House) at Punta Gorda History Park. 

Following are the Guild membership levels, with their benefit descriptions:
