OUR STORY:
Clay covered + forever making.
At CLAY + CRAFT, we believe in the transformative power of art. We understand its ability to evoke joy, inspire introspection, infuse warmth into a home, foster connections and contribute to overall well-being.
Our artwork has been featured in television commercials, found a cherished place in homes and restaurants nationwide and is a favorite among the most accomplished interior designers.
Led by Owner and Artist Nicole Novena, CLAY + CRAFT has also taught thousands of individuals how to make ceramics, inspiring others to embark on their own creative journeys.
This creative endeavor is the output of 20+ years of pottery expertise coupled with 15 years of marketing + business experience. It has been named a “Best of San Diego” business by San Diego Magazine and is an Etsy Design Award Finalist.
From humble beginnings to store fronts and studios to now an exclusive online storefront and e-learning ceramics resource, thank you for being a part of our creative community!
