hALL Atelier offers a sanctuary for creativity, inviting individuals to explore the therapeutic world of ceramics. Established in 2020 by Diana Marques, a designer with a passion for fostering artistic expression, the atelier has become a place for both beginners and skilled artists seeking to engage with the tactile art of pottery.

hALL Atelier has created diverse workshops, each structured to provide unique experiences. The 'Flash Experience' workshops are designed for those seeking a light, fun, and inspiring introduction to ceramics, with no prior experience required. Participants can disconnect from the quick pace of daily life and center themselves through hands-on creation.

For those desiring a more immersive journey, the atelier offers intensive courses in both ceramics and pottery. Spanning 12 hours over four sessions, these programs dive into fundamental techniques, including clay preparation, modelling methods, firing, and glazing. The ceramics course focuses on hand-building techniques such as pinch, coil, slab, and hollowing, while the pottery course is dedicated exclusively to wheel-throwing skills. These structured programs are ideal for individuals aiming to deepen their knowledge and potentially continue working on independent projects within the studio's membership framework.

One of the atelier's signature experiences is the 'Hugging Workshop.' Inspired by contemporary artists who incorporate physical interaction into their creations, this session allows participants to imprint a pre-formed clay vase with the embrace of their own bodies. The result is a unique piece that captures a moment of connection, commemorating special occasions.

Recognizing the importance of community and continuous learning, hALLAtelier also provides a studio membership program. This option caters to individuals with prior experience in ceramics or pottery, granting them regular access to the studio, materials, tools, and kiln facilities. Members can work independently on their projects while benefiting from the supportive environment of a shared creative space.

In essence, hALL Atelier, through its thoughtfully curated workshops and programs, offers a space where creativity flourishes, and encourages individuals to reconnect with the simple, grounding act of shaping clay.
