Brooklyn Clay Industries is currently accepting applications for our Internship and Work Exchange Programs for individuals interested in developing hands-on experience in ceramics and studio operations.

Our Internship Program is designed for students and beginners with little to no pottery experience who are eager to learn ceramics, studio workflow, and the day-to-day operations of a working clay studio in exchange for their time and any additional skills they may bring to the community.

Our Work Exchange Program is intended for individuals with some ceramics experience who are looking for a dedicated space to continue practicing their craft while gaining deeper knowledge of studio operations, kiln room procedures, and studio technician skills through hands-on participation.

We are looking for motivated, reliable, and community-minded individuals with a genuine interest in ceramics, craftsmanship, and collaborative studio culture.

For inquiries and application details, please contact BCi through our website or email us directly at [email protected].
