Recently opened Clayworks is a refreshing addition to the Toledo Main Street scene. It’s a pottery studio where anyone can pay a membership fee and come whenever they want and create. There are plenty of wheels to go around, a number of different kilns, and enough clays and glazes and tools to inspire anyone. Owner Dave Silwones is a relative newcomer to pottery himself and is brimming with enthusiasm. He’s planning a roster of classes, come fall, for his clients — people from all walks of life, trying something new — to learn the basics from experienced potters. He’s also hoping to stock the shop with gorgeous pieces from local working potters, to attract and inspire future students. Looking forward to seeing how this space evolves!
