About London Potters

London Potters is a voluntary organisation formed in 1986 to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences of all those involved with an interest in ceramics.  We are a London based society (but not restricted to London) offering memberships to both professional and non-professional potters and ceramicists and on a non-selected basis.

Our members are united by the appreciation of ceramic art and a desire to further their knowledge and to communicate with fellow ceramic artists and collectors.  

The Council consists of volunteer trustees who meet seven times a year including an AGM, to carry out and organise the LP business.  We are supportive and encouraging of each other and always happy to meet you and welcome you to our friendly band of makers.

We are run by members for members and we work to support our members whether they are experienced professionals or just getting started.
