Gowanus will see the opening of a high-end grocery store and a pottery studio, Hey Clay, this summer. The new studio aims to promote community well-being by making pottery classes more accessible. Founder Cauvery Patel, inspired by her pandemic experiences, created Hey Clay to offer flexible and affordable pottery instruction. The studio will occupy 1,750 square feet and accommodate both novices and experienced potters. Patel is also running a crowdfunding campaign to fund necessary equipment for the studio. This development aligns with Gowanus' evolving identity as a creative community hub.
According to the studio's website, founder Cauvery Patel - who has lived in and around Gowanus for six years - started pursuing pottery as a hands-on, mindful hobby after the COVID-19 pandemic.
You can almost feel the creative energy! Gowanus' evolution lends itself to the need for community-driven, hands-on activities and it seemed like a no-brainer to choose it for a modern pottery studio like Hey Clay.
