Fire and Clay Exhibition

The Auckland Studio Potters Association (ASP) has promoted and supported potters in Auckland for over 60 years; offering classes, firing services and a community that potters can call their own. That kind of loyalty has enabled the ASP to flourish, to enhance recognition for the pottery and ceramic arts in Auckland and throughout Aotearoa. Fire & Clay 2026 showcases and awards the outstanding pottery and ceramics of ASP’s membership. ASP is delighted to announce the selector and judge this year is artist, Bronwynne Cornish.

This annual exhibition celebrates excellence in ceramic practice and demonstrates both the depth and breadth of experience of ASP members, who range from senior practitioners to impassioned amateurs, as well as students studying in craft, design or fine arts programs. The work on show includes functional ware and sculptural pieces, and encompasses a wide variety of making, glazing, and firing techniques.

Join us for the opening, 5:30-7:30pm Thursday 5th August at The Arts House Trust, Pah Homestead 72 Hillsborough Road, Hillsborough, Auckland 1042.

The show will be running until its final day on the 6th September.
