>STUDIO

The Pico Boulevard studio of Jennifer Joyce is a haven for artists and non-artists alike who want to get away from the stresses of daily life and disappear into a quiet, non-threatening environment.  When you come to the Jennifer Joyce Studio, you can relax, listen to music and let your creativity run free.

Classes will explore a variety of handbuilding techniques including coils, slab and press molding. A slab roller, clay extruder, stamps and a wide assortment of tools are available. The cost of classes includes firing, glazes and 25 pounds of clay per series of 6 classes. We use a white earthenware clay and many different colors of underglazes and glazes.

We are also a working artist’s studio and ongoing work and projects in various stages of completion can always be seen.

The studio is located at 3028 Pico Blvd. In Santa Monica at the corner of 31st Street and Pico Blvd., directly across the street from McCabe’s Guitar Shop and 1 block west of Trader Joe’s.
